im speach less about 5th gear! they bought a 300te (?) with electric windows both front and back! and the 7 seated model for £695!! in Sweden it would cost like £3000!! and they just waisted it for nuthin.. anyway love your benz! i might get a 230 E -88 beige sedan 4-speed automatic! :) my grandpa´s ex car which have been standing outsidefor 3 years..

the car was good for the age, no doubt, but it looks morbid and associates with funeral cars :)

still, 5th gear people have no sense of humour, they never do it with style like top gear does most of the time

@AUTORECOVERYUK In my case the self leveling hydraulic oil leaked from the pump. and have been empty several years. Try to drain the hydraulic oil..

@MikeE381 My Merc sits up ok hight wise but bounces like hell when you go over a bump. It must be stuck on its hard setting i reckon. I've tried adjusting the link arm on the rear axle that goes to the anti roll bar but nothing. The pump is working off the camshaft so i reckon its the spheres that have gone hard on her. But changing them will mean pipes and unions braking and a load of money. So i would rather remove the system as i dont put weight in the back of her anyway.

@AUTORECOVERYUK Funny, (maybe not) but my MBs self leveling unit dosent work either. But its not a problem. The back springs hold her up great..

[AUTORECOVERYUK]

Fantastic car. I have a 1991 300 TD auto estate with 268000 miles on her and apart from the dam self leveling suspension which i want to remove so if anyone knows which shocks i can use to replace the self leveling units please let me know. She has been and still is a great car. even left for 4 months over winter started first time on the key when still covered in snow. Returns 38 to the gallon and aint got rusty front wings like the newer mercs suffer from.

real nice-prise dude :) good bargain!

a Mercedes for that price would be one without engine and tons of rust here in Sweden :P
