1977 Mercedes-Benz 250 review from North America
"I would sell my new car before I sell this one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car hesitates slightly when accelerated. I believe it's the accelerator pump inside the carburetor.
General comments?
This car rides as smooth as I have ever seen a car ride, even being 32 years old.
The body on this vehicle was put together with some extra strong something, because it has no squeaks whatsoever.
It is a German model with German specifications, so it has no air conditioning.
I wish I could find an AC kit for it, but I don't want to kill the value of it.
