Talking My new 81' 240D 4-speed

Well, we got it back in October, but I've just been too lazy to post photos.

Just under 200k miles, but the instrument cluster was replaced so I'm not sure of the actual total. I'm fairly sure it was in a minor accident where it's discolored on the driver's side as it just doesn't seem it line up as correctly as the passenger side.

It's been about 2 months so far and I've logged about 1500 miles already without any serious problems. I've wanted a manual diesel Mercedes since I've wanted a car, and this is the first one I've run across in Austin that's been within my meager price range.

It had a replacement Becker, but it barely functioned, so I ripped it out and shoved in a $15 replacement. All the original speakers still work!
