Just read that MB has over a thousand cars, from very early to late models, stored away waiting possible restoration. Also that their web site "All Stars" has sold over 50 restored cars to date which included several W116s.

Just saw a beautiful 1977 450sel (not 6.9) with 40k kilometres for sale in Oz for $40k.  Highest I've ever seen.

The ones sold from the museum went for about 40K euros and were not their top classification. Prices here are still a fraction of that perhaps because the 116 was never that popular unlike its contemporary models the 123 and 107. Still its good to see MB promoting the 116.
