Mercedes W114 Coupe
Saw this on Gumtree...
1968 Mercedes Benz W114 250CE coupe

R30000
This could possibly be a bargain?

Re: Mercedes W114 Coupe
That is an excellent price - the Merc 114/115 and 123 coupe's are getting scarce - lovely cars.
Re: Mercedes W114 Coupe

Re: Mercedes W114 Coupe
Depending on the condition of mechanicals this can be a very good buy.

Re: Mercedes W114 Coupe
For the money, this would make an excellent "Bull Run" car ......perhaps not everybody's idea of using a classic however.

Re: Mercedes W114 Coupe
Although the emphasis is on fun, Bull Run rules calls for a car that costs no more than R20000(including purchase price, repairs, registration and maintenance), and preference are given to 4 door sedans.V8 fan wrote:For the money, this would make an excellent "Bull Run" car ......perhaps not everybody's idea of using a classic however.
There are a lot of 4-door W115/W123 M-B's out there that fall into that category, coupes are too scarce.
Re: Mercedes W114 Coupe
Very true Indy
I just thought if one could get something similar for the price limit in the rules of the Bull run, I would consider.
However, I would prefer an old V8 banger......lots of fun between the old brandy, smokes and tire burn-outs.
Something like a Rambler Hornet, Pontiac Grand-Prix(had one which I bought for R22k), Chrysler 383, Ford LTD, Constantia, Galaxie, anything big with at least a standard fitted V8 will do!!
We're hoping to go next year......now just to find a car

Re: Mercedes W114 Coupe
Sure would sound good, and have lots of style, but it's a tall order to get anything V8 powered and running for under 35k. Just a rebuild American V8 engine would most likely cost 35k.V8 fan wrote:Very true Indy

There are lost of options, I've thought of using Cortina's, Granada's, Skyline's, Laurel's etc, but am now kinda sweet on an old 5-Series Beemer (E12/E24) for running on the pan, sweet six cylinder and perhaps it has a LSD as standard. Some Alfa's may also be good fun.
