has anyone seen a 2001-2006 C220 CDI in the states? I saw one today driving down the road in Charlottesville, VA and followed the guy for a while ( I was hoping he would stop somewhere, I would then be able to talk to him) It was a manual transmission had plastic hub cabs. It had the Euro Plate hanger but he had a Drive Away Tag attached which is different than a Dealer Tag.

anyway I would love to find a way to get a newer small MB Diesel to replace my W124 300D it has to die sometime, it is still running strong with more than 400K miles.

When I was in MBCA a few years ago, a fella whom had just bought a new MB diesel, forget exactly which one, but was one of the first in the U.S. He got in New Jersey. The function was in Richmond, it was silver, of course! We all ouued and awwed!
Did not have any dip stick, a dealer installed option, relied on dash lights for oil and transmission fluid levels.
