FS on eBay: 1988 300E with only 106K miles, DC/Baltimore area
My wife decided the kids should have her Volvo, so the 300E is up on eBay - auction ends Oct 28.
Click on the list for the detailed description and lots of pictures.
This is actually a re-listing - prior auction ended at $2600 (not bad), but the high bidder was an eBay novice in Norway of all places. He didn't have a realistic idea of shipping costs and ended up reneging on his bid.
I'm near Frederick MD (DC/Balto area). Fly in to any of the local airports (BWI, IAD, DCA, HGR) and I'll pick you up and you can drive it home.
I think the seller should have taken that money. Maybe he was hoping for something closer to the insane money spent on the one owner 88 turbo TE sold on bat about a year ago..
RNM....I guess there are those that don't want to do any work and pay an insane amount...more than premium. Sounds like a millennial seller who thinks he's got a bull by the tail.
Pretty ordinary Japanese version with the M103 unless you're gaga for that red paint.
I agree, it is a very nice w124 estate but not as refined as a NAM 94-95 estate with HFM and M104. IMHO those are the best wagons I have owned/driven. My DD is 87 300 TD wagon and I drive it hard and it is happy as can be, and giving me 30mpg. We will be seeing many nice examples coming from Japan in the near future. I am not convinced that every classic MB from Japan is a great buy. Being near Vancouver, BC I see many low mileage MB's from Japan and thru my experience about 25% of the cars are questionable as in: abnormal wear on interior, sunburnt paint and interiors, along with questionable odometer readings. W124's of all varieties are 20-30 year old cars, to me it all comes down to "current condition". In the last couple yrs I have seen 2 estate wagons with approx. 65k original miles and both were basket cases, the only part of those cars that were 65k miles were the odometers. Most important items in todays market are - PPI's, condition, service history (nice to have but not a show stopper for a nice example) and the car shows some love and respect. Those are the good ones! Mike
Last weekend i did a service for the E220, changed the engine oil and filter, spark plugs and brake pads... After the service i have cut open the filter to inspect it for any metal shavings and i have found 2 parts, one of them looks like an aluminium wire about 1 cm length but it is hard and...
1989 300TE / M103 with 400K+ miles starts & runs perfect but after a while starts losing power under load; will rev fine and you could drive it home by using lower gears. Initially a year ago it would start losing power after maybe a half an hour; as of this weekend it was within 5 minutes! I...
Okay, I saw discussion somewhere here from like a decade ago and I think it died off, I'm getting no replies. This is very long winded, so I apologize but I'm so frustrated that this should be so damn hard!

Hi,
I've just ordered a new triangular piece for my driver side seat belt extender/guide. Can I just remove the old triangular piece and replace with the new one or do I need the entire arm that extends as well?
Thanks!
My driver's side seat belt extender guide (the triangular plastic thing) eventually wore through. Purchased a replacement, unbolted the belt at the floor, removed the old one, slipped on the new one and all is fine, almost.
There's a cover that clips on at the base of the belt that goes over...
