Cold weather starting

What's the coldest temp your diesel Benz will start without a block heater?

It was in the low 20s here this morning and my 77 300D struggled, but started within a few seconds. New pencil style glow plugs really help. It's got a block heater installed, but I don't have the cord.

The 300SD started okay too.
