hey guys

Drove past dealership last nite, and noticed 1991 300e-24, seems failry priced, and tidy.

I have read few buying advices...but havent came across nething that i could say that simplifies the car, as it seems that the models slightly vary from continect to continent.

here is the link...

http://ucn.dealernet.com.au/detail.p...&ucnid=2764197

the bit that noone has mentioned on here is the AMG sign which is engraved on the boot at the back...can someone clarify that.

from closer look, because the car was on the ramp as i pulled over last nite at 1am, to have a closer look, car looked preety neat on the underside, however, whole diff is oily????

could i get some oppinions on the car.

Thanx heaps guys

 

He wants $15 grand for that..........GTFO here

 

that cars worth 5-7 grand maybe 10 if its pristine and a true AMG. 15,000 is wayyyyyyy over prices (i live in the states so, not sure if things are different in australlia.

 

well its australia...here its all different and opposite...

even water in toilet makes a whirlpool in different direction...nehows...

IS that true AMG?...as for the price, had a look on out carsales websites, and it seems everyone is around the same mark...private sale is a lil bit less...this is dealer...so its more...

 

i think the ducktail is AMG, but probably not the whole car:

Fairly Priced for that type of Merc From a Dealer in Australia

I payed $7500 for My 260E From a Dealer

Must say though i have NEVER seen an Australian Version W124 300E-24

300CE-24 i have but never the Sedan version or even heard of them in australia, im guessing its pretty rare

For the Price Your Paying though id Get Someone out to inspect the Diff, obviously there is something wrong, Diffs are expensive to fix and cause its a mercedes its gonna cost heaps more

Id have them Fix it then get it checked over by someone u have chosen to check the vehicle for you, cause the dealers will do a dodgy and do a quick fix

Other then that if the car has been looked after, you shouldn't have any problems with it for a very long time

Only one Downside to the W124's They tend to chew alot of petrol, but if you dont mind that, There a GREAT car

 

High mileage, poverty spec car with the wrong wheels and a Ducktail spoiler.
Make sure the chrome wheel arches aren't covering rusty wings.
I think I'll set up a UK-Oz W124 export Co. A car like that would make less than $1000US here.
Diff seals are hard to replace but unless it's leaking really badly you can probably just top it up at each service.

 

ZedStyle...so the specs and the options...they are for the 300e? or the amg version?

as for cap'n jasper...i wish i could get a car from uk...

here, all european cars are overpriced...and the service is even worse...

i use to own calibra holden/vahuxhall, it got written off and i got 9000AUS for it from insurance...in UK it would probbaby get 3000 to 4000 AUS if i was lucky...so u cannot compare it...but if u thinkin about import export...need help...let me know......

but back to the subject...yeah....now i dunno nething lol

 

no idea, i put in your VIN and that's what came out. I'm pretty sure it's not an AMG though, it just picked up the duck tail somewhere in its life...

 

awww yeha that makes sence now...

it it would be an AMG, its way too low price wise...i thought so, but wanted to get an expert oppinion

thanx for that guys...
