The other thing is, as crazy as it seems to me, I think the 240 and the 420 would bring about the same amount of money, and it would take a hard-core diesel nut to choose the 240 over the 420.
Despite this, the cheapskate in me realizes the 240 SHOULD cost much less to maintain, and I could do many more things myself to save even more money.
Thanks for the replies. This is a tough decision.
Wish I could keep them all

No, but I've driven a 2000 E320 - nice car, big gas hog as contrasted with my '99 E300TD. The 2000 E320 was an MB loaner car while my car was in for warranty work, or I'd of never driven one.
All things considered, I'd be leaning to sell the SD if it were me. I would also contemplate upgrading the E420 to a W211 E320 gasser. Under no circumstances would I part with the newly acquired 240D. But that's just me.
