£100 should cover everything except the exhaust. Get a scrap one.

it doesnt need replacing though, just a bit of welding. the middle section was replaced only 6 months ago.

Here we go...

The photos were taken with a cheap camera, i apologise.

The car is now mechanically in 100% condition (rebuilt suspension, new shocks, brakes, engine tuned-up, ...), it just needs a new rear muffler and some cosmetic work.

It's a '87 B200K.

You've got a lot more height in a hatch, as the shelf and seats are fixed in a saloon...but the boot is a bit bigger 'normally'.

It's black metallic. A little faded now, it needs a polish. I will probably repaint it in a couple of years, but I don't want to as long as the original paint is good. No paint job ever will be of that quality.

I was just wondering, am I the only one with a saloon around here?

The boot is quite large, but the access opening is rather small. A picture:
(click on the picture to see it in original size, same goes for previous photos)

Black was a very special option here in Belgium, like the leather... sm1

I came to conclusion that this is one of the last B200K models sold (they stopped producing them in 87, right?) so maybe they put them on sale with black color, alloy wheels, central locking and maybe a special price (it's a GL otherwise).
