THE BODY AND TRIM

Imperfections on the outside of this car include some touched up scraping on the front bumper along with various minor scratches, nicks and other light blemishes. This is still a very handsome and stately low-priced classic Benz sedan!
THE INTERIOR
The interior of this non-smoker car is in good to very good original condition overall. The horn, ights, linkers odometer, peedometer and other gauges are in good working order as are the electric windows and sunroof. The air blows cold, here is a bit of typical wear on the driver side seat bolster, tear on the passenger seat cushion and some other light wear and tear spots inside this still solid and comfortable cockpit!
THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This 1988 Benz starts up easily and runs fairly well and smooth. The acceleration is good, he transmission up and downshifts beautifully, he braking is strong and straight, he suspension is fairly tight with good steering feel and quiet exhaust. There is a little clunk in the suspension which I believe is a worn ball joint. At 27 years old, his big Benz still has a solid, afe and comfortable ride and drive!
