A 200 diesel was never offered in north america so some parts may be hard to come by. Besides that if it has no rust and runs well (slow I'm sure) I dunno 2-3k. You are going to need a euro front bumper for that. Looks pretty nice though, get that dent pulled out if you buy it.

I'm thinking it's a typo. I don't think MB sold a 200d in 1983. It's a 300d, although the extra 100 is not going to change the price.

I had no idea it was your car ineon
That is sooo funny. I had no idea it was your car ineon. I thought it might be a good idea to let the members of the forum help with the pricing. Did I represent the car accuratly in the post ? Looking forward to seeing the car this weekend hopefully. Thank You RichC

the 200d was a euro car. that is def a euro bumper set up on the rear and prob on the front too.
and because of the euro stuff i would have been lighter too. so the difference between it and a 240 will prob be minimal in performance. tom w

It's more than a park brake. I don't think a 200D can make it over that brick on it's own power even with the slope of the driveway
I got to ride in a 200D AT with an autocrosser at the wheel and it had some hustle. Sixto ... stay tuned

I'd love to see a 200D. I hope they add it to their fleet too, maybe they could bring it to the next get together. I remember seeing a writeup someone did with pics on driving a 200D in some European country. From what I could read, though it was slow, it wasn't that bad of a car. I can't find the article now, I wished I had bookmarked it, anyone remember it?
