An example from 35 years ago when Mercedes knew all about quality . 170,000 miles on this example and could easily cover the same again .

Looks good on it. But it had been stored for 7 - 8 years before the recent MoT so tyres may need replacing. It appears to have done over 90% of those miles before 2006 (161k miles at MoT in 2006).

Love those era Mercs

Original owner has specced air con (which would have cost about the same as a second hand Golf back then) but stayed with keep fit windows.... must have pushed the car allowance to the absolute limit!

You are quite right! I don't know how I confused myself with that. Air con really was an expensive option - I just checked an old price list - £2,280 back in 1991 which is inflation adjusted to more than £5k!
