All the books and some records. Original Becker Radio. Interior in very good condition. Kept all it's life in garage.

It drives like a dream, Nostalgia is precious. Classic with a ton of memories, super comfortable. So far, it is very dependable; never failed.
A/C is cold. Steering is as straight as an arrow; no vibrations anywhere. Paint is beautiful, all original and shiny, can't believe how they kept this paint clean and shiny and zero rust. The car turns heads now and then.
Gas mileage is relative for the era and being 6 cylinder. We love it and you will love it too. The car is certainly a beautiful ride. It floats along like a boat, so many be suited to sportier drivers. however it is about as comfortable as a car could be. Driven less than 3,000 miles a year, with only 104k miles total. My dad had one with 375,000 miles on the clock, it started every turn, never blew smoke and drove like a dream. After owning a Mercedes, what can on upgrade to? The engine is great and very strong, huge torque it's fast.
The interior is very German, wood has no cracks, All switches are functional. The handling is great and you have no idea that you're driving a big sedan. A fantastic car that you feel lucky to own. With new tires it drives like no other. The comfort is uncanny. The engine is a work of art for over 40 years ago Mercedes had twin cam engine and I also just enjoying looking at the car. Prices are rising all the time, so if you want one, git it whilst you can, but make sure you find one with no rust and true low mileage like this one.
