Thakyou kind Sir..I have more pics if anyone is interested. Pls send me a message. OBTW wait til you see my 95 E320 Cabriolet...oops can i say that here?
Thankyou all! It was owned by a gentleman in New York who drove it 4000 miles over a 10 year period. It was sold to anothe gentleman in North Dakota who drove it about 4200 miles then sold after 12 years to a fellow in Camarillo Ca. (where I live) and I bought it from him last winter. He kept it in his heated garage on carpet no less. The car has never seen snow or rain and I have all records (not many) including the sale sticker for the window. I bought it because in 1982 I put money down on the exact same color and style but chickened out as, at the time, it was too expensive for me. Life has been good and I saw it and had to have it. Paid way too much, but I love it and am still fighting myself whether to drive it or show it. Sincerely Tom

I'm in Anaheim, it seems you're not too far away. You got a very nice car there! How did you manage to find such a low mileage specimen? How is it running? There are always two sides to buying a car, a low mileage one (like yours) or a high mileage one. Some say a low mileage car will have its seals dry and its parts sticking due to non-use. I hope it isn't the case with yours!
Here's my baby. I think it's fate that I've fallen in love with diesel automobiles; my birthday is February 17th, which is the same day that Rudolph Diesel performed the first successful test run of his engine back in 1894 [:)]

Daimler300CD !!! Very nice car! looks like new![;)]
Onkel-Benz:
Thanks for the nice comment. Unfortunately the car is in need of a bad paint job on it's upper surfaces. The paint is oxidizing like crazy due to the Florida sun. Actually the top of my car has a big white line going down the middle and looks like a skunk[:D] Also, the chrome around the windows is badly hazed and in some places scratched. Other than that the car is almost perfect with the exception with some interior pieces and such. But the important thing is I've got a great car that will more than likely out-live me[:0] I just love the way this car drives. I've been around diesels for 18 of my 20 years of life and don't think I can ever turn away from them. I especially love the 123 body style.
BTW: You have a very nice looking car as well.
