Hello municipality, I am a bit perplexed and hope for spiritual support and solid advice. Situation: I could buy a W116 – 350 SE from pensioners’ hand (2nd hand). Key data: – Bj 7.76 – 250,000 km – color white – accountant equipment (caroteon, blue) – H-mark is already on – TÜV is new without defects or hints – The car is stainless but was already massively welded about 25 years ago (spool complete, end tips, various patchwork in the engine room) as well as doors exchanged t. The welding works are solid but not top class. – The car was also once completely repainted in the original color tone – dashboard torn – glass roof installed afterwards (that was sometimes mega-in in the 80s) – window lifter retrofitted with original MB switches from that time – The car is currently on subsequently registered wide tires (dimension I don’t know anymore), the formerly existing baroque rims are lost – Preisv position around the 5000 Euro including a few spare parts that still fly around – engine and transmission run as far as it was to be judged during a short test drive – the sliding rails of the control chain are still original!!! I always found and find the 116er somehow class, but would not have let me stumble over this car I would certainly not explicitly look for another. I’m torn back and forth. Buy or not? And of course… damn why is it just And how do I teach my wife that? And anyway, will my E24 ever forgive me if he gets a new neighbor in the garage? Help me…
