Thumbs up i think because I like German engineeing

I had never been in a W123 before in my life. I have owned a gasser A3 VW Jetta for 10 years, 224K mi. and nothing but suspension and clutch, brakes and exhaust plus maintainance. I still like it.

This is different though, but in a way its the same. I love the feel and driveability of both cars, but the way the Mercedes awoke from its 20 year life in the city and blew that beautiful puff o turbo soot and did like 90 the first time I put my foot in it. Body was nice, had some issues but well worth it, not to mention, my friend ThosDoran found her just in time to reinvigorate her. Hope to have the Passat 16v up for winter beater ASAP.
