About this car
This Snohomish 300SEL has the 4.5 V8 engine. It runs and drives and needs a tune-up. The seller wants cash only, and the $8,000 price is firm. The seller describes the suspension as hydraulic with airbags. On a W109, ask how long the car holds its ride height overnight, because that answer matters more to the value than the tune-up does.
What the photos show
- Only one photo is available for this listing — a front view of the blue-grey sedan nosed out of an open storage garage, other cars parked behind it — so most of the car can't be judged from photos at all.
- The car sits level and complete at the front, with its chrome grille, bumper and stacked headlights in place — a stored car, presented as it sits rather than cleaned up for sale.
- The other vehicles visible are simply garage-mates in the background, not part of this listing — the Mercedes in frame centre is the car being sold.
- No interior, engine bay, trunk or underside photos are available — and on a 300SEL the air suspension is the big-money system, and its state can't be judged from a car standing in a doorway; the overnight ride-height test is the check that matters.
Money: $8,000 is cheap 300SEL money precisely because the air suspension and the recommissioning are unproven — the photo shows a complete, level-sitting car, and the suspension test decides whether it is a bargain or a parts car.
