Patrick,

This one looks ok and I think the price is about right:

Only two things that would concern me is that it has chrome arch moulds (which hide rust) and has a towbar (puts stress on the transmission and chassis)

My only hesitation with this 450 is that it's been for sale for a while... I've watched a few others come & go in the time it's been listed. That's not to say there's anything at all wrong with it but it does make me wonder why.
It could be the colour, people either seem to love or hate Silberdistil 885... I'm a lover but I understand why one wouldn't.

The 450SE that we were talking about in this thread has come up to Sydney to live with a MBCNSW member.
He just sent me some photos, the seats were under covers so are immaculate. the car was being sold at the end of 2021 by a relative of the original owner. Was bought by somebody else but the heater core started leaking which was too big a project for him. Just arrived in Sydney today.
