Agree'd that car does look better.
The distance though.
I have decided on a 220D because I want a pre facelift car.
And I want diesel because I a diesel mechanic, and want something fun to tinker with.
I wish I could get a 300d but that does not fit the pre-facelift criteria.
I have no personal memories, and do I want to look cool? Well sure, why not.
But more so I want to FEEL nostalgic.
And I have fallen in love with the pre-facelift cars. (Not more than the w108 ofcorse.
I wish the w108 was offered in diesel.
I am hoping that with some tinkering, I will be able to make something halfway economical but that is not a real concern.
