1983 mercedes benz 280se ??
 

this car was originaly purchased and used in germany and shipped the usa in 1995 . does anyone have any helpful info ? and why is it that this model is not referenced as available in this year by the repair manuals avaiable in the us ? any bit of help or info will be appreciated. thanks

thanks for that answer, i appreciate it. that brings up a couple of questions.
How does that affect the value of my car ?
how would i determine what is the next closest model that was a us import, for the purpose of having a repair manual on hand ?
thanks.
