Anyone that thinks a 240D is slow drives too fast.

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

You know we want updates + pictures..

I went after the '83 240D on Tuesday. I got there about 6pm, as I recall. My coach was running an hour later than normal. The seller asked when I arrived where my luggage etc. was? Well, I told him I didn't bring anything. We headed for a McDonald's, and he went over the car and the signing the title etc. I have heard of car records being kept before, but you wouldn't believe the records he kept on this car since new. It was in a computer program noting everything from oil changed, and when to change it again, wheel rotations, you just name it, and it was there. I couldn't fathom something like it. It's had 71 oil changes depicting the 270 thousand miles on the car. The car looks new, and no rust or tears inside whatsoever. It looks, as good as, a 80K 240D I purchased 10 years ago, and runs, as well. I filled up with diesel before I left, and checked mileage on arrival home. I got 34.14 miles to the gallon. I got back with out any incidents or problems. It does have a starter solenoid, that is failing. The intermittent wiper relay is defective, and the cruise isn't working. Other than that, it is good. It was scary going again on a car not seeing it beforehand, but when I saw that car in the parking lot shining like a diamond. I had to nearly pinch myself. I am excited, that in 4 years I can antique tag it. I was out of a benz for 2 years, but I came back. I was told, that gravity brings people back? Oh! The real deal is how it takes out with the 4 speed gear box, wow! I like that, so much better than, the automatic I had. It's a keeper!
