My first car was a 1979 240 D. It was a tank, when you close the doors you will hear how solid the car is. Anyways, the only real problem with them is no acceleration. To get it going takes some time, but you have to remember they were made for cruising the Autobahn. Once you get them up to speed though, they will cruise all day long. On a road trip from NC to FL that thing rode like a dream. Mine was an automatic so I can speak of the four speed. But mine had a ton of miles on it when I sold it a few years ago for about $2200.

Good luck
