Model year 1980 (1979 build) 300SD. I have had the car for 5 years and put over 40,000 very reliable miles on it, it currently has 237,000 miles. It is a blue plate CA car. I am the second private owner (it was owned by a Palisades man whose widow left the car to German Auto Technik in Santa Monica who used the car as a customer delivery car - I bought it from Guntram (the owner of Auto Technik) when they closed down, they serviced my Porsche. The car is a very good driver and looks nice and unlike of other SD's is not some poor old sod on its last legs after years of neglect (trying to be honest vs. a huckster). I have used it for long drives and short commutes. It was just serviced with new brake fluid, coolant, air filter, oil and filter. In the last 30,000 miles I have had the following done: new climate control system (blows cold and acts as true climate control, i.e. it follows the temp you set), new a/c compressor, four new Bilstein shock absorbers, all new glow plugs, new belts, new battery, new water pump, new vacuum pump, new coil (the diesel equivalent), rebuilt and resealed differential, new brakes, new windscreen, and much more. I have all the bills for the work I have had done (totaling $12,141.00). I have all the extra keys, tool kit and the books. Issues: drivers seat is worn but not torn, cruise control is iffy, small vacuum leak that means sometimes one door will not lock right away and after starting need about 10 seconds for doors locks to come up, some very faint light paint blemishes. Always garaged. I live on the westside of LA. 
I like the car and am not needing to sell just interested in getting something different. Will consider this as partial trade (very small :->) for SL 230/250/280 or BMW 2002 or Volvo 1800 or Alfa Romeo GTV. If I sell it I will donate money to animal charities I support. Thank you.
