No doubt but back then MB were still making decent cars & at $3,500 there's not a lot invested. (That's not to imply there's anything wrong with the current line up)
For me, these care make a lot of sense. They're cheap, well built and when they break you can actually fix them.
But they only make sense of you're going to DIY most of the maintenance & repairs.
Having said all that I have no idea about the newer V8. I know the M119 is very good but no idea about the M113.
