CONGRATULATIONS!

As I thin the herd, I will probably get another 230S and mod it for a turbo diesel. Yes it's heresy to the purists.

Thanks! This is exactly what I'm going to do, once I find a 230S. And then I'm going to convert it to a wagon with the rusty one I have.

Thanks! The problem is, I had my heart set on a certain 230S and passed up a bunch of others cars because I really wanted to buy it, but the owner I guess isn't interested in selling it since he's strung me along for ten years. Now they are much harder to find. I'll keep looking, though.
