As soon as I can I'll get together with Rollguy to check her over. I know a little about 300SD's, and not much at all about the 123's 240 D, only that I didn't want a 240 D with an Automatic, though I don't know from experience, how slow they really are. That said if one were to appear that was a cream puff or for the right price, then that would be something to think about.
I like the fact that this car is a bare bones no power assisted anything except P.S. Less to check out and keep straight.
