I'm GOING to purchase a MB diesel in the ver5y near future and have narrowed it to a 98 or 99 e300d. I'm finding a few but I want to take my time and find the perfect car. What I'm thinking about doing is getting a W124 to fill the gap and I have a kid that works for me that dreams about MB's and I can work a deal with him when I find a new car.

Option #2 is a new CDi(the option that the mrs. can't know about), they scare me though why do so many dealers have deeply discounted cars with hundreds of miles on the clock? Do they run VO? I'm goingtest drive on on tuesday but I'm a little afraid if I like it theres a good chance I'll drive it home.
