AAAAH com on, those 2 look lonley, they need a friend

I wonder if reverse is the 5th, seen that before.

No door key, then the tumbler must be out of something else.

approx 212 miles, so the spedo doesn`t work.

Nice interior, but drivers seat is torn. too bad there is no interior short. and one of the shift know.

CL is always so vague on the details.

Anyone that thinks a 240D is slow drives too fast.

I live in Washington and drove a 3 hour round trip to look at a 240D that ended up being a 4 speed, even though the seller INSISTED it was a 5 speed.
