Ever seen one of these?

My answer is definitely no. I didn't even know they made a 240d wagon, much less one with a manual tranny.

I'm not interested in it, maybe someone else does? It's a hell of a find.

Is it just me, or does that sunroof look incredibly small?

Normally I'd jump on something like that, but I just bought a new house and blah blah blah...I just sold two cars last month, wife would be mighty upset at me buying another one given our current financial situation

I'll go look at it for somebody if they want...

I wonder where the SLS is leaking? From valve is no biggie, but from the struts would be less fun.....

Mmmm..... struts are expensive. I'd love a 240TD.

I'd love to have that unit but I'm dangerously close to MBZ critical mass. There are currently 5 at my house...two are DOA, three runners. The remaining elements of the the fleet are dispersed between north Austin, and Bastrop and Milam counties.

Are any of those a 240TD???? I didn't think so!! AND, it already has the standard tranny.

Man it's in Fredricksburg too, that's be a long tow to get it back to Austin.

Maybe I won't go check it out for somebody (hour drive one way)...
