Greet's all, new to the forum and I would appreciate some advice...
Just back from overseas and I'm looking for a daily driver W114 or 15. I'm lucky enough to be a couple hours outside of Los Angeles, so there's plenty of them out there... but I just bought a house and that's where most of the money is going. I'm good with engines and brakes and such... just terrified of ever opening a transmission.
That said, is there a strong preference for diesel or gas powered examples?
Which is easier to keep happy with diy maintenance?
I have some hills to climb, but otherwise I'm never really in a huge hurry so the slow poke models would be fine... especially if I can find a manual.
Cheers,
Vince L.
