What model do you think this is??

There's a local car lot that has this Euro model Mercedes... purportedly a 1985, bought at auction from a charity donation. I'm kind of interested in it, but don't want to buy anything blind. Can anyone pin a chassis type on this, and maybe tell what engine is in it?

The engine compartment looks a bit more cramped than my 240D. Opinions on reliability/mechanical robustness for a model like this? Things to look out for? Thanks,

Kurt
