Was that the same box that was for sale for 3000 usd a couple of months ago? Saw it, and walked away. Would have grabbed it at 925, but who would have guessed such a price drop was possible?

Hi,

no, was not the same box as the $3000 box. (do you have a link?)

The 925€ and the 5800€-box are the same.

V8 chromed engine covers...

They're not chrome plated.  They're just polished aluminum.  Take note of the areas they couldn't get to...they're still unpolished.

Couldn't see the details properly. Ah well.

Had mine polished and they look like chrome but yes there are some parts that couldn't be done. Not really noticeable and very pleased with them. The cost was £60 for both covers a lot cheaper than €350.

MM.. there's a joke in here somewhere about posting an eBay find at your own risk.

This one could end up a bargain.. W116 tank sensor.

Remember that you can only do surface transport with shipping.

Looks like another cheap-ish chain tensioner for V8. What do they cost in 2019 at MB's?

This is the cheapest W116 car phone set I have ever seen..-for what that is worth.. I paid double that, twice over.

HI Stan,

This one could end up a bargain.. W116 tank sensor.

https://www.ebay.de/itm/Original-Mercedes-Benz-W116-S-Klasse-Tankanzeige-Tankgeber-SELTEN-NEU/233154337325?hash=item364914da2d:g:gewAAOSwGjtcfNfa

this will end with a high price, look who is the seller. Never wondered why his 1€-Auctions never
end with small prices?

regards,
Thomas

[floyd111]

Mm..that could be a seller with a possible dodgy list of listings. I did not check before. You think he pulls all auctions before they end, whenever the bid isn't high enough?
