I’ve noticed there has been a few really nice Mercs up for sale on the net of late.

Just for everyone's information:

The ACCC has instituted legal proceedings in the Federal Court against Grays eCommerce Group Limited, an Australia-wide online auction business, over false or misleading descriptions of hundreds of cars on its site, including about the make, model, features or undisclosed obvious faults with the cars.
Grays has admitted it engaged in misleading or deceptive conduct and made false or misleading representations between 1 July 2020 and 30 June 2022 about the details of cars offered for sale on its online auction site.

Good on them.
Not at all surprised.

Excellent. I do wish the ACCC had a full set of teeth as there are several issues related to this company that have been obvious for some time. Their prices are no indication of the real market as a result.

Here are two images.
Very nice looking 6.3!

 

[Styria]

Beautiful and regal car to look at - it's only early days, be interesting what it will fetch in the end. However, not an easy car to work on and maintain. Regards Styria

Thanks for posting Bryce.

 

[ProfessorExperimental]

Ef me. 8300 for the 633 CSi seems criminal, but then so is 11 for the fintail. Hope someone's actually going to restore the mkx jaaaaaaag and not just going to a happy wrecker...

This is one of the nicest W114s I've seen in many years:

Looks like original plates and still has the AWA radio that would have been dealer fitted.
