O.K. It is bit late even for me so don't take this post too seriously but IMHO a turbo Mercedes wagon is NOT the first diesel vehicle you should buy as Daily Driver to "learn the ropes" on. Go out and buy a rusty VW Rabbit to tinker with for 500 and drive or maybe park the Mercedes until the honeymoon is over, so to speak and then you can decide if you really want to deal with an extra cylinder, a turbo, an automatic levelling system, power everything, vacuum everything and 300K and 30 years of Previous Owners "fixes". Sounding a bit cynical? No one says you have to listen to me....Welcome to the club of course!
