Don’t get me wrong, I still love those cars but I certainly don’t want these projects anymore. I’ll keep my w210s they’re easy to work on and pretty damn reliable.

Yeah, tell me about it.
The glory days of old diesel benz ownership was the 2000s and early 2010s when NOS after market parts were plentiful and the yards were full of these beauties.
Now, they're as rare as every other old car.
I guess that's what happens when you cross the 30 year old threshold
