but I think I made a good deal last August when I bought a 1991 350SD with 204K miles. I looked for a long time for a black on black full size diesel sedan in decent shape. The previous owner did alot of work over the years including A/C upgrade to R134, radiator replacement and cooling system, brakes w/rotors all around, paint, new tires, rebuilt front end, new power steering pump and new battery. The seeping head gasket pushed him over the edge. My investment has been the headgasket and a rebuilt tranny but at 212K miles, I have a car that I can take another 100K miles. The interior is mint and I get offers for it from time to time. Not too bad for $6K...
