What's a good price for an '88 300TE with a shot SLS
I think I'm ready to throw in the towel on our 300TE. The SLS is shot, making the car _very_ bouncy. It doesn't make sense for us to deal with an expensive repair (I'm no good at finding good cheap MB mechanics), and I'm kinda looking forward to having a 10-12 year old car, not a 21 year old car. So I'm likely going to get rid of it, even though the engine is still running great (about 160-170k I think, need to check).
I figure someone who either wanted to fix/replace the suspension themselves, or someone who wanted W124 parts would appreciate it. I suspect it'd be hard to sell on craigslist given the bouncy ride.
What's a reasonable price to ask for?
The car is in Vancouver BC, fwiw.
(random other details: white w/ blue interior, jump seats, been on a synthetic oil diet for at least 6 years, no "AirCare" issues at all. Known issues: front drivers seat motors/gears somewhat finicky at times; a few cracked plastic trim interior bits; rear hatch hydraulic latch broken)
Thanks for any advice!
