Mercedes-Benz 230E (1981)
Hi,
after my Grandfather I've got this MB. Grandfather drove it as a taxi but it was over 10 years ago. Up till now it's been running and Grandfather used to travel it normally over 60 mph. Earlier in the Spring I wanted to get it out of the garage and after some kicks it started for a while but then it died. I removed the starter and it is rubbish (burned rotor). Below are not the actual pictures (I did them back in Spring time), but after these white coverings is normal, not out of use interior in this color: http://www.astralsilber.de/polsterungen/032.jpg Now I'm thinking what's next to this car, what is its value, is it worth of refreshing, or sell it as is. What do you think about it? How much would cost the restoration? At least outside (inside I can clean it up easily).
Thanks for any opinions.
