I'm resurrecting this thread as I'm beginning to covet a W124 300D 2.5!!
I've seen some truly gorgeous ones on eBay. The white with grey mb-tex seems to be a popular combination. I like it!
I currently have two VW TDIs. They are great, but my commute is getting tough and my Golf 5M often seems more of a chore than a joy to drive under these circumstances.
I know these engines are bulletproof, but what about the transmissions? What about electricals?
I DIY everything on our two cars save the timing belts. How hard are these cars to maintain?
Your thoughts would be most welcomed!!
