Strange 300D

Bought a Euro 300D. It does not have a heated rear window!!!! Was that even an option? Both front and rear glass have the same German make on it. Thanks

Are you sure? I have seen three different types of rear window heaters… thick wires, thin wires, and nigh invisible wires…

Perfect rear bench seat

My Belgian delivery 83 300TD turbo is a rear seatbelt delete car. Shocked me - hadnt seen it on a wagon before.

Post No Seat Belts

This is really interesting ~ I'da thought them mandatory, those who choose not to wear them can simply stuff them down behind the seats like the Mullet heads in their clapped out Camaros .

Any chance it was a taxi ? .

My seatbelt delete was also first delivered to Belgium. I wonder if it was a hotel car first (used for picking up guests from the RR station or airport)?
