It probably won't sell... likely won't hit the reserve unless there's a flurry of bidding at the end...

Then again he's been listing it for a while, so maybe he decided to just put a low reserve to get rid of it...

Man I always wanted that exact combo growing up. I think that was the first wagon I really liked. Beautiful.

I was looking for the exact same wagon ... but eventually settled for a Nogaro blue Sedan instead.

Definitely a unicorn - Avants grab nearly 2x the premium regardless of color .. last Avant like that I've seen went for $14,000 and it had just under 100,000 miles.

Since having a hatchback, I really like that Sportback. Too bad.

1987 Mercedes-Benz 300TD | Bring a Trailer

$25k for an '87 300TD with over 115k on it ?!?!?


I'm MB fanboi #1, but that seems really steep. Though, it does look to be in near showroom condition.
I prefer the W123 Estates over the W124.

Ha, saw this one this morning.

Super clean... my mom used to have a sedan version of the 300 turbo diesel. Other than vacuum leaks, they are absolute tanks.
