These seem like deals to me. Plus I like these M130 power plants. While smooth, you can hear that '60s sports car rasp when they get on cam that's so attractive.

I should clarify since I've gotten some PMs about the previous auction of the car: it was not a condition or misrepresentation reason as to why the sale fell through, so do not fret about something weird being wrong with the car. It was just personal factors that effected the previous listing from the buyer who we are in good standing with still. With that clarified, I really hope to be chatting with a winner today. The seller's restoration shop in Germany did one helluva job going through this car. He is an open wallet collector with his classic Mercedes-Benz. -Excellent paint in the original color -Really well done interior restoration using OE leathers and carpets. -The M130 is healthy. No blue or white smoke on start up. Cranks noticeably quickly when cold. -Transmission shifts fast and smoothly Happy bidding and good luck.

It’s such a warm, old school interior. December 16th, 2024 at 11:47am ESTKJen08 (1) 0Black must be the best color on this big body cab.

Some of you might think this car looks familiar and yes, it was listed a few months ago under the owner's personal account where the winner unfortunately (but gracefully) backed out -- which gives you guys a second chance to bid and win this spectacular W111 cabriolet. The car is unchanged and hasn't logged any miles since it was first listed. It has just been staged in the climate controlled storage facility in Ball Ground, Georgia. Please look through the gallery and watch the video I put together. I hope I answered most questions with the listing I put together and the concise writeup The MB Market put together for the vehicle. If you have any questions, hit me up with a private message. I'm also available for phone calls and the car is available for showings. I'll be here if you all need anything else. Thanks for looking and stopping by!
