I find it interesting that that the ages are pretty evenly spread. It does surprise me a little that we have so many youngsters in the group. My kids would not drive a 300SD if their life depended on it.

The "most popular" age? Well, that'd be age 20 for me -- when I was having the most fun. OK, I know what the poll really meant -- what age are you? I'm 40.

I'm 43---1981 240D OM617.952

My 17yo son---1989 420SEL

My 19 yo son---soon to be driving the 1975 240D W115

Momma wants a 560SL..she's gonna have to wait a bit.

LOL, I'm coming up on my 10th 39'th birthday.

19 here. I just barely remember the year my car was built. Bought new by my grandparents from the now gone Mercedes dealership on Route 4 in Fairfield, OH. Grandpa bought his 300SD there, and I think they bought the W115 240D that my 300D replaced there as well.
