I am looking at an 86 300SDL with 222K miles. Condition is clean with average wear inside. Exterior is original with no rust and just a couple of parking lot blemishes. AC does not work. I haven't driven it yet. The guy wants $4900. He said his Mercedes mechanic would repair the AC for $1400. I would of course bring it to a mechanic before buying it.
Is this a reasonable asking price assuming no real big surprises?

Thanks for any guidance.

One more bit of info worth noting, that is the first casting of the 603 (i Think that's the motor #) head which is Very prone to cracking. Bare heads run about 2K. Ask if the head has ever been replaced...
