Towing a Benz 30 miles...

Friend's got an ailing 300D 2.5Turbo - it has a '93 motor in it (last one blew up) and a trans is his original '91. It's stuck in 1st gear following some trans work.

Anyway, I'd like to tow it to my house from the shop that did the work for him (rather poorly, I might add). The distance from the shop to my house is 30 miles even. Is it OK to tow it this distance with wheels on the ground, or is it risking trans damage?!

THx,
James
