We must be related but totally oposite. I bought a '80 cream yellow 300 SD at the same time you did (for $1050) and sold it within a month for $2500. Now you say your looking at a 240. That's really odd as I just traded a nice steak dinner for a nice blue 240

Oh you drove yours home and cleaned a spot of the windshield. Mine will be towed home this week
