Well, i'm still looking for an alternative to my "69 280S, since it's a gas gussler, man I miss my old diesel days.

Today I saw and test drove a '75 200D. The car was totally euro spec.; euro lights, no AC, a Manuel. The car is in great conditon. No rust anywhere. Intrior has almost no sign of wear. It runs good, everything works, no odd sounds. Seals seem good.

Obviously, its not a fast car, but I think I can manage since its a stick. My question is.. is this a rare car (I'm assuming a euro spec. would be)? And what are the pros/cons of the W114 model.

And If I was to buy it, what possible diesel engine swaps can I do with it, down the line?
