I have not been able to locate any 1979 280E's in my area that are for sale. I would like to find out if this model is a fairly rare find. If anyone out there knows anything concerning this models history or where I can go online to research it, please advise me. Thanks in advance.
These 280's did not sell well in the U.S. so in a way it is a rare find. Dealers were selling diesels instead of gasoline engined cars. There were 122,848 units made from 1972-1980. Your car is the U.S. version from the looks of the bumpers. Visit www.mbca.org for more info.
