Yeah, you guys that just can't believe these prices have to understand that cars and owners like this are not in the league of *most* of the people that follow these forums, were mostly DIY'er of one sort of another that like these cars more than a little because there well made and long lived, and cheap for a reasonable example to drive pretty regular Someone who pays $12K for a showroom 240D or $20 for a truly pristine SD is not going to wrench on it in there back yard and drive it around all the time. It's a whole nother world guys, don't knock it just because it offends your frugal sensabilities. You can't restore one to originaly condition for that kinda money. And it's only original once.



And as far as the fellow who'd rather have the newer whatever it was, your completly missing the point, go play in the general tech section or somewhere that caters more to newer models. There is no comparison what so ever.
