Poll Lets get a count of the 300SD owners

with a poll, we can get the total # of cars without following the entire thread and seing how many respondents just answered questions etc.
same rules as the 300SD post with a poll. ONLY 300SD owners and drivers respond.
parts cars don't count!
SDL's also don't count!
and 350 SD's don't count!
John
*this is assuming I can figure out how to get the poll to work.

Why don't 350SD's count? They are a SWB W126, as well. I protest the poll!

350SD owners lets flip over a car and light it on fire!

As the owner of a 350SD, I also would like to protest this poll - and would also like to request my 1 'protest' point!

What are these points good for? Can I cash them in for free pancakes at IHOP or something?

I'm on my out right now to find a good candidate car for flipping and burning... perhaps one of those Dodge Intrepids - you know, the ones with the 2.7L motor that sucks...

Could have had a Two or More box or you could have really made it complex with 116 and 126, 116 and 160 etc.

If you're leaving out the 350SD, the W140 300SD should not count either from a technical standpoint. Contrary to the model designation, it had the 3.5L OM603.
