The oil pressure is low, but maybe it's because it's filled with 10W30. :p

Gotta love the longevity claims to calm people's fears about 254,000 miles...

The Mercedes diesel W123 (1977-1985) chassis sedans, wagons, and coupes are known throughout the world as the most reliable, safest, and longest lasting vehicles on the planet. In fact it's a W123 diesel that currently holds the world record for the highest mileage for an all original passenger sedan. It's has close to 1.3 million actual miles and is currently being shown off at the Mercedes factory museum in Germany. In fact, there are several W123 chassis known to exist that have broken the 1 million mile mark. The 300TD Turbo-Diesel Wagon made its U.S. debut in 1981 and was the first diesel-powered passenger car to compete with gas powered cars for speed and power. It will easily exceed 100 MPH and can get 30 MPG at 75 MPH. Parts are readily available, reasonably priced, and last a whole lot longer than domestic car parts. Can't lose with a nice Mercedes diesel!
