I don't know-with the recent skyrocketing price of fuel, there has been a fair amount of biodiesel interest locally, and (as we all know) the older Benz is the perfect vehicle for it.

I'm down in SE KY, kinda between TN and VA. I'm one of the few guys into the old Euro stuff.

Nobody cares about these cars when they can get a rebuilt late model Caviler/whatever for about the same money as a NICE 240D, or cheaper. The new FWD stuff gets better mileage then ANY W123 made.

Now, if people wanted bio/grease cars that would be great, but NOBODY I'm aware of down here runs them, or even knows what they are.

At the most, they'd be intersted in running off road fuel, but even that is higher then regular unleaded at the moment.
