While in Germany two years ago I once drove a friends "immaculate" 1983 300SD on the Autobahn. The car drove smoothly all the way up to our equal of 110mph-before I chickened out and slowed down.

We then drove my rental Ford SUV. At 95 mph the damn thing was shaking like it was going to come apart.

1983 300SD in Germany with Km/H speedometer? Was it re-imported from Canada?

Yeah, a 300SD in Germany is almost non-existant. They were sold in North America only.
