76k miles
Medium blue
Gray Tex
Original radio
Very nice interior
Sunvisor clips broken both sides
Incredibly dirty, but is being detailed today
Clean history with lots of oil changes documented since new
No major issues
Trans filter and fluid twice - every 30K
Several injectors and glow plugs

Everything drives and operates pretty normally - however, it feels "flat" off idle - although awhile back, my 1985 300CD did, as well as two other mid 80s 3 litre engines. My 350 SDL, while not renowned for much except bending rods, is very linear, but not nearly as fast when into the turbo as this 2.5L is ...

Anything notably bad about W124 (I think) with 2.5?

Solid lifters or hydraulic? (they sounded solid)

Owner asking $8K - NADA ~$6-8K range - top amount from dealer?

Cleaned up this will be a beautiful car .... no paint issues to speak of, no rust, no dents, etc.

Thanks for quick reply and opinions!
