Hi all, found these among the collection of Benz-o-bilia I have, thought it might be nice to share them with everyone, enjoy!
The 6.9 test
This is the American one, from no less than Physicians World.
Yes guy's you read it right, I have listed them on ebay for sale. The SEL is needing a battery charge, change that weepy radiator and as a precaution change the water pump (all parts included) and you're good to go. The SE isnt in such great condtion, blown head gasket & the radiator is...
How 70's is this? Astral on red tex. it's on gas though.

66,000 km's, Icon Gold on Black Velour (unusual, wasnt velour an NCO instead of leather?) Looks very very tidy. I shudder to think what the reserve would be though.

"A brief road test of the Crayford Mercedes-Benz estate car" took my interest
THAT looks like a 6.9 Crayford, theres a black spoiler poking out underneath the front, missing the headlight wipers though, and the exhaust outlet is wrong. HMMM curious!
I got so excited...a 6.9, low k's, country car, no noticeable rust....and then the last pic said it all, the bomb in the boot....*shakes head*

Without furtherado, THE COVER!!! *drumroll*
The question burning on everyones mind...Would you have a 450SE over a Caddy?
Some "Did you know" info
Last but not least, the press stuff....notice, the price tags arent included? hmmm interesting!!!
Someone needs to grab these while they are still bargains. The P/W switches are worth that alone in good condition.

Not the cheapest i've seen, but then not the most expensive either.
Dont think this one is a factory version...Looks good nonetheless!
