1977 Mercedes-Benz 280e in Morden, Manitoba for sale

The bullet proof 1977 Mercedes Benz 280e is built to last and is the first choice of countless governments and underground organizations to meet their transportation needs. This particular model is popular in sub-Saharan Africa as a bush taxi, and can easily cover thousands of miles of rough roads with only basic maintenance. Although lacking the power that today's primitive drivers demand, the car's engine is considered one of the most reliable ever built. With 151,000 original miles, this one's just getting run in. The trunk could easily be converted into a 6-person hot tub--it's that big.
The pre-facelift 280e, like this one, has that Old World European interior detailing that would be lost in the years to come. Good ones are hard to find, let alone one with a fuel-injected 6-cylinder twin cam engine. It's a much more enjoyable drive than the lame oil burners of the era.
This car is all original, save for a transmission rebuild in 2011 and a CD player upgrade in the late 90s. Meticulously cared for with a show room quality interior. Sun roof, climate control, door locks, etc. all work as new.
A fantastic car all-round. A bit of rust around the wheel well appears to be the only significant blemish and has likely been there for 20 years anyway--an easy fix and of little consequence to the serious buyer. Otherwise, no real money to spend here. . . a car just waiting to be someone's week-end cruiser.
Drive into history for $2,900 obo.
