Subject:Re: F/you think we have problems? Try owning a MB600

I wanted one of these for a long time & decided against it because of
maintenance cost.

Recently I picked up a 1963 190Dc. For those of you who have spent any time
in Germany during the 60's you will immediately recognize the car as a 4
door taxi!

So, it should be relatively cheap to keep on the road, right?

Wrong!!!!

The starter went out and Mercedes quoted me $1160 USD for a new replacement!

I found a good used replacement out of Kalifornia for $120 USD.

Thanks, Tom Hargrave
