All four tires are good, car strarts right up in the morning. Special 18' Mercedes chrome rims and good tires valued at $2000.

I purchased this car from an old Mercedes diesel fanaticfriend that is retiring and moving fromSan Diego Calif. to Idaho, he had many unique dieselcars and he did not keep his license tags current, thus I avoided theexess fees and did the South Dakota plates. Overall this is a very unique and great driving car, the motor was replaced seveal years ago and was very nicely cleaned and detailed when installed. I have provided disclosures with the intent that the next owner will be aware of what will be needed to the best of knowledge. Regarding the oil leaks I am not sure what is causing the oil leaks but recommend you have a mobile mechanic do a complete check of the car to your satisfaction, nevertheless I drive the car daily and have a oil drip pan in my driveway.

With some work this car is a good canidate for local car shows, its a real head turner and anyone who has owned or loves the w123 cars will be very impressed with this uniquecoupe. Engine photos to follow tomorrow. No smog certification for California. I have the completed and passedbrake and lamp inspection certificates.
