I bought a new 1976 300D in 75 when they first became available and drove
it 15 years. My Brother-in-Law had owned Mercedes before and offered me
more than I had paid for it new. So I sold it to him and spent years driving
other autos (not Diesel). Tried Audis, Peugots. Volvos about everything over
the next several years. Bought a 1994 Buick Roadmaster new and still own
it---it has just over 7000 miles now. I started looking for a used Mercedes
Deisel and found an 84 300DT this Spring. So I am back to Mercedes Diesels.
This is an exceptionally clean, well maintained two owner vehicle. Everything
works as original. So we shall see. BTW-I am 81.
