In my honest opinion. Except fit and finish. Plastic interiors and made in Mexico quality has nothing on those old MB. I'm actually getting tired of my ALH tdi.

I bought the one I was looking at. 1984 300SD. No blow by, no smoke. Some issues that didn't present itself until I got home. I'll go through it and post some questions when I get a chance to one over everything.
