3.0 turbo diesel 28-30 MPG. These engines are known to go in excess of 1 million miles. If you are looking for absolute quality and classic German engineering this is it. Car is out of Arkansas, so it is not eaten up with road salt rust. They do not build them like this anymore I assure you. All new Bosch glow plugs, air filter, new primary and secondary fuel filters, fresh valve adjustment, new valve cover gasket, new thermostat, fresh oil change and filter with fully synthetic Rotella 5w40, New A/C compressor and full a/c service.It really is a beautiful classic. Come take a look if you are interested. Selling due to moving.

How about a close up pic of the area behind the rear wheels. Shot from a low angle.
Thanks.

In 2007 I didn't own a diesel.

I think I've taken pretty decent pictures.

Any major work done?
How often do you change the trans fluid? rear boots? tires?

I've not even had the car a year and put less than 4k miles on it. I lost my license....just need to sell it.

I doubt you'll be selling it, if you refuse to take certain photos for members or answer asked questions....

What happen to the fact that you are moving and need to sell the car?

I'm not refusing to do anything or answer any questions. I've listed everything I know about it. If someone has serious interest I will certainly accommodate them. But, as most of us know who sell vehicles.... Only about 7-12 percent of people who respond are seriously interested.

Even less I'd surmise, when those folks don't know your location.

I hope your car sale goes well.

I definitely see rust below the front bumper. Some around the back seat of the driver side. Appears to be some also behind the rear wheels also I can see. Little bit around the jack tubes. Do you have any other photos of this rust I can see?

chris,
despite the 'million mile' engines 4 grand is all the money for one of these in average nick unless you can supply complete service records and verify NO rust.when someone asks for pics of the lower quarters they are concerned about bondo being where the metal used to be. any answer to the question "can i see more pics of....?" other than "sure, send me your email..." is usually seen as evasive.....
