DO NOT RESTORE.

about right money i would say for one thats been festering for years, loads of them are getting broken as they cost so much to put right - they just dont like been stood and if its been stood damp the wood and leather inside just falls to bits

they are crap as well as they are un turboed, so must be right slugs

have a look on flying spares website at the cars they break, it really doenst take much for them to be considered to be uneconomic to do up

Some interesting prices through; the 840Ci for £5500, the gold 380SL and the green 230E Merc - all way less than the fortunes we're told they're worth - and suckers have been paying.

Spot on, leave as is, drive it and have some fun.. :D

No worries about “originality” or “ investement value” to get in the way
