WTB: W123 300TD/300TDT w/ Manual Transmission
Hi,
I'm fairly new to this forum but have been lurking for a while. Figured Id make an account on here and finally ask around for a 300TD. I'm in Connecticut but I'd go as far as Virginia to find one, maybe even farther if I have to. I'd prefer the one that came with a turbo (so anything after '81 right?) but Im open to checking out earlier models as well. Excuse me if I sound like an idiot but I am still reading up on these cars. Please shoot me a PM if you have one for sale or know a friend that's trying to sell one. Im looking for one that can be daily driven. |

Hi and welcome to the forum. What you are looking for will be very hard to find, as Mercedes did not sell Turbo 617 engines with a manual transmission. They only sold the 4 speed trans in the 240d and non turbo 300d. A 5 speed trans is even harder to come by as they have to come from europe. All the people that do have turbo 617 / manual trans setups, have swapped it in themselves.
A perfect condition wagon, 617 turbo, manual 4 or 5 speed, with rear seats is found only in my dreams and sadly not my driveway. This is called the Unicorn. Good luck on your search.

Here's one to check into: 1980 Mercedes 300TD Turbo Diesel 4speed Clearly not the original motor and/or trans since it's a 1980 but with what you're wanting guess that's to be expected. This is not my car nor do I know the seller.
