27mpg!

Pretty good considering I drive it hard (on/off throttle and 80mph highway) and it did about an hour total of idiling on that tankfull. The power is excellent too.. I'll put it up against any W123 300D turbo.. excellent car!!

Let me see you drink a cup of hot coffee while merging onto the interstate! :p


I really admire that little car.. Any seat of the pants/watch 0-60 times?

Thats Great

I'm jealous of you guys that get such good mileage out of your diesels. I'm lucky if I get 21 mpg out of my 300SD.

The Euro 300D, is quite a sprinter. Though not as fast as say a turbocharged version while moving, they give it a good run from a standstill with the stick-shift.
