We'll see...

I really don't think any of the newer diesels, or gas cars, are going to experience any problems in the short term. In the short term, they could prove durable and everlasting. And most likely the engines will last as long as our 240D's. ONLY IF THE OWNER'S SERVICE THEM FREQUENTLY.

However, whoa to you who may buy these cars upon their eve of becoming classic status.

In other words, too many bits and pieces. Heck, if I had the money, and I had no interest in the way a machine works, I'd plunk down the $$$$$ for one in a heartbeat. I have to admit, there is no better looking car out there than the 211. Although, I will have to get used to it's "butt" over time.
