so on that note I recently saw this

its very cheap in comparison to

http://www.carzone.ie/search/Mercedes-Benz/280-SE/201011197249436/advert?channel=CARS

the only major difference I can see is the dearer one is a 4.5 ltr and the cheaper one is 2.8ltr

I know very little about these other than I really like the look of them.

So anyone have any idea first off on the massive price difference?

The cheaper one has been for sale now for over a month or so I think.

Maybe theres something wrong with it.

Anyway any comments welcome. Cheers.

Just remember they're not like modern cars , there's a lot of looking after in an older car and if you dont have the time / money / knowledge they can p!ss you off real quick.

My weekend car isn't even that old but there's always something

Post this over on Classics, you'll get die hards over there who'll know their stuff on the like of this

You'd really have to examine both to answer your question. Let me know if you want this moved to Classic Cars.:)

At a glance I'd say the bigger engine and almost half the mileage have to account for a fair chunk of cash. However the left hand drive would almost cancel these out so as the man said you will have to look at both.
