Guy stopped by today to look at my 190E. Saw my diesels so we started talking about diesels. He mentioned the E250. Said that, in Portugal, he drove a 9-passenger van with that engine in it. They has six passengers, loaded with luggage, and the thing was absolutely and effortlessly powerful at 100 mph.
