[MBZ] '91 300D purchase inspection

[Sunil Hari]

make sure the A/C works, and that the sunroof tilts and slides properly.
Look for transmission flare, and possibly filmy oil (if the head is cracked
and leaking coolant into the oil).  Look at the head markings for the
version number (#14 = bad, >17 = good) and ask if it's ever overheated.

If it handles like a good 123 car, it needs major suspension work.

Also, how much are you planning to offer?
