I agree, the cost per mile is going to increase after a certain mileage. It's just a matter of what you want. I could probably drive a new CDI for about $.50 or .60 per mile, but I'm not interested. I think I spend around $.30 per mile for my 300D. I could probably drive a newer W124 for less (in the short term) but I don't want to do that either. I could run a series of W123s into the ground for $.15 or .20 per mile, but I'm not interested in doing that. Just a matter of what toy you want to play with.
