That's some serious mileage you are racking up there, Bob!  
Congratulations on not having just another garage queen.

I've just put two back-to-back 4,000+ mile road trips on our coupe, a  
1992 300CE Sportline. A flawless ride, with many 12 to 15 hour days  
in the saddle. We purchased her w/ 90,000 miles in 2001 and have over  
180,000 miles now. Very few problems with the 3.0 liter CIS six.

BTW, Bob, your coupe is one of only 1,019 300CEs imported into the  
USA in 1993. And only approximately 20 to 30 of those were  
Sportlines. A rare car indeed.
