Description of 1991 Mercedes-Benz S-Class

The 350SD was the diesel version of Mercedes flagship S-Class line.
The 350SD was the shorter, ore nimble version of the highest selling S-class version in Mercedes history. It has the 3.4L diesel engine which allowed an unbelievable 19/23 mpg for an almost 2 ton car. The car is able to get almost 550 miles on a tank of fuel. The 350SD was only sold in 1991, he last year of production for this popular body style, nd there were 2066 of these produced. This car is a rare blackberry exterior with grey interior. The car has had a mild restoration as it was meant to be a car for my son for college. I wanted a very reliable, eavy car that would protect him but still give him good mileage. He ended up moving to a college that made it more efficient not to have a car. The car is not used and I am getting too old to maintain so many cars, o it is being sold. The following is a list of options per Mercedes:
The car looks, uns, ides and drives great. The interior is in excellent condition with a single deep scratch in the leather back of the drivers seat shown in one of the photos. Part of the wood has been professionally refinished and it is also in excellent condition. It has new factory floor mats less than a year old, ires with less than 6000 miles on them, nd steady maintenance using Mercedes parts. The evaporators go out after about 15 years and are almost $3000 to replace at the dealer because of the high amount of labor involved. This car has had both evaporator and heater core replaced. The following is a list of what I can remember replacing:

When I had the transmission rebuilt, requested firmer shifting because that's the way I like it. My other Mercedes cars seem too soft. The evaporator, ransmission and repaint are almost $9000 just between them. The turbocharger, adiator, ompressor, njectors and a few more parts are also parts that are expensive maintenance items. My goal was just to be sure the care was mechanically sound and looked good for my son to use.
These are older cars and it is important to buy one with no issues and the expensive maintenance taken care of. I am selling the car because I am getting too old to take care of so many cars and this car is not being used. It is a very nice example that has had some of the most expensive maintenance already completed.
I have got more than $15,000 into this car and would like to get back as much as I can. One of those situations where you put in more than it is worth, ut it is a good car. I am open to offers to get down to a more reasonable number of cars. I am actually the 3rd owner of the car. Any other questions, lease ask. I am relisting this item because the buyer was a scammer. Got the story about how they were an oceanographer on the ocean and the car was a gift. They are paying by paypal and will pick the car up immediately after payment. Please no more scammers. I WILL NOT ACCEPT payment via paypal and I won't believe any stories about overseas, n the ocean, nder the ocean, n the himalayas or anything else. Don't bid unless you would like to buy a car, ot steal a car. Sorry for the rant. This stuff just makes me mad.
