Hit a Milestone Today with the 85

I hit a milestone today. I planned on driving in a residential area where I could pull over and take a picture. Now my 85 300D is officially out of warranty with respect to mileage. (Time ran out a long time ago.)

Wow. I thought my 100k was kickbutt... reached in early July.

Most of the Mercedes I've owned had north of 250k miles when I purchased them.
