Lets all welcome the newest diesel to the forum, a 1983 300D! We rushed to the East Side of Michigan tonight (the thumb area ) and snatched it up before another guy could come out to buy it tomorrow. She has 221,300 miles, runs great and has NO RUST at ALL. Only a small spot on one fender, easily fixable. I'd say the car is an 8.5 out of 10 physically, and a 9 out of 10 mechanically. It MOVES! Wow...I had never driven a W123 before, what a difference compared to a W126, its fast...and feels like a block on wheels. I'll take some pics sometime in the next couple days to show it off.

THREE diesels and counting now....and we got this one for a steal of a price. Its why we had to rush over and nab it before the other guy.
