Don't be upset nor put off by these responses , they're all accurate ~ if you're not going to be pleased by the beat up Toyletta Corolla passing you at the red light , DO NOT buy this car ! .

I have a cherry '82 240D with automatic and it steps right out ~for a Diesel .

Much more important is : does it pass the oil cap test ? this is where you start the engine and loosen but DO NOT remove the oil filler cap and see if the blowby knocks it off the engine ~ it can dance , that's O.K. but if it clatters to the ground , the car isn't worth more than $500.00 no matter how clean it is , unless you like adding oil every single day .
