This is a nice W126, but its a HK 500SEL, not a 560. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/184027768360?ul_noapp=true The seller has priced it as a low mileage AU delivery 560. I would prefer this, but the market prefers the AU 560.

this 450Sl doesn't look bad. Don't think its a 74 though, as there is a K jet engine under the bonnet. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/133208086523

I'm really glad I went - I found out the car is running way lean. It's consistent through the pull so I don't think its that the pump is not keeping up or whatever. I will need to sort this out and wouldn't have known without the dyno
