And as a fun bonus to conclude the auction, Thomas LePley, the third owner of the car from 2014-2015, let me share his story with this fantastic Mercedes 300TD to help fill us all in on the early history of the car: "The first buyer was a neighboring ranch owner in Santa Barbara, and she only put approximately 800 miles on it before she passed away. Her estate put it up for sale the next year and I was outbid by another neighbor (a retired aviation executive) who I saw quite often for the next 25 years or so. Each time I saw him and his wife I said let me know if you're going to sell it. One day in late 2014 I got a call and all she said was "Veral died, do you want to buy the car"? I was a member of the Merceds Benz of America club and saw the announcement for MBZ cars over 25 years of age and 200,000+ miles to participate in the "Legends of the Autobahn" at Pebble Beach, so I applied and was accepted. I went there and displayed my wagon among all the wonderful other collectible MBZs. While there a nice couple approached me and bought the car. They didn't drive it or check it out , other than hearing it run. I suggested they take the train from S.F. to Santa Barbara and I would pick them up and take them to the car's mechanic of the last 20 plus years (Norh's Autohaus), so if they had second thoughts about purchasing it , I would be happy to keep the car. They were delighted with it and drove it back to San Francisco!" Max - P.S.

Thedailyvroom.com has an interesting take on this car for those of you who have not seen this site before.The Best Deal on the Internet this week”…… Enjoy….. Good luck with the auction …..February 10th, 2025 at 2:19pm ESTmaxminshull (11) Seller 0@deniskolman78 My best guess for sea freight would be somewhere above $5000 to Slovenia from Los Angeles. That's just a guess based on my experience shipping cars.February 10th, 2025 at 2:00pm ESTDenisKolman78 (1) 0Hi, Thanks for your reply, but I would like to ask if you could give me an approximate price for transportation and all the costs that will need to be paid, so that I can calculate how big a budget I can have. Thanks for your answer.

There’s a small leak but it’s the common one from any of the Turbo Diesels. Nothing substant
