We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works

I think it looks grand. I bet it is a seven passenger.....two front two jump seats and three in back.

..I also have a 427 Cobra replica with an aluminum chassis.

If I remember correctly the one that I rode in, in Cyprus (a taxi), had two passengers up front + driver, and then two rows with three seats in the back.

Disclaimer:- It was a long time ago and I was drunk... so make what you will from that!

1) There were no turbodiesel 300D Lang versions... all 300D Lang had the OM617.951 Diesel with a 3.69 rear end ratio,
2) All W123 Lang models were euro-spec, therefore it should have euro bumpers and lenses,
3) All 300D Lang had standard 5.5J x 15 H2 steel wheels w/ 185-R-15 93H tires,
4) Production was from 9/'77 to 11/'85 and a total 4,679 units were produced,
5) Its chassis number should be 123.132 to verify its identity.

It should, but it's probably been federalized. If the ad is correct and it does have a turbo engine, it's likely a transplant from a wagon to operate the SLS.
