240D all manual...

Looking for a nice 240D with manual trans and manual windows... simple is good. I'm in the Denver area - would like to find something within 400 miles or so...

I have a 1979 240D manual if you want to extend your range to 700 miles.

For a nice one it would be well worth the drive.

Talking

It's definitely nice. No rust. Dash cover in place since new. Audiophile sound system (probably to drown out the drone at highway speed).
No sunroof and manual windows.

Could you send me some pics - whats the history of the car and what shape is the engine and body. Oil leaks, blowby, rust? Manual or auto?

Drone?

If it drones at highway speed you're not going fast enough!

Keep the pedal to the floor till the engine makes a frenetic high speed roar, muffled by wind noise. I don't like droning sounds either

Haha, the old 4 banger does sound pretty sporty around 80 mph, and lord knows how many RPM...

For a nice rust free 240, I almost want to drive to Mizzu!
