I cannot thank all the kind people here who have helped me out. I won an auction on ebay for a 1988 240DL. This one looks very clean and the milage seems really low. I am doubtful of the low milage but the car really does appear not to have been driven too much. This is not to atypical of cars driven by the old folks who come down to Florida to retire. I have two questions. How do you think I did on this deal? Second, what can I expect to have to do to this car soon after I start driving it? Any tips, as usual will be welcomed. I included a cut-and-paste to the auction below.
