I recently called a shop in L.A. called Semhi motors or something like that. I asked the owner if he could do a ppi on a 1967 200D. He immediately asked "what do you want that car for?" I told him I liked them and he replied that they were awful and they were $200.00 cars. He told me he would not inspect one and " I won't let those cars in my shop!" "People who own THOSE cars can't afford to fix them when they break."

He is a mercedes shop that supposedly works on the cars... I got his name off the forum when the seller couldn't drive to see Enrique. What a jackass!

I love my diesels, but is it possible that the rest of the world doesn't perceive us as cool like we think of ourselves in our smelly little cars?
