Congratulations

I've owned my first MB Diesel now for just over a month. Also an 81, 4 speed stick with 375000 on it. I think you are probably right about the motor lasting to 500000. That's my goal with mine anyway. My cruise also doesn't work. Havent attempted it yet. My mpg's are only 29 in city driving. Averaging around 50mph. So you are doing real well there. Enjoy the car. I'm loving mine more every time I get behind the wheel.

- Peter.
