it's sad to hear that the 210 is a step back from the 124 in so many
ways. many of us will reach the end of the line with 124, 126 and
107

Any one know any thing about the 1997 300D?
I'm looking at one and the only thing I don't like about it is it
is
NOT
turboed.
The 210 is not considered as robust of a car as a 124, and is
certainly
nowhere near as simple or inexpensive to maintain as a 124 (which is
not as
simple or inexpensive as a 123). The 210's known problems seem to
hover
around poor rustproofing and cheapening of suspension components,
but
supposedly the ride is wonderful.
Do not be deceived by the engine being non-turbo, that non-turbo
engine puts
out more power than the 2.5 turbo that preceeded it in the 124s - I
believe
140 hp. The transmission also likely does not have a dipstick and is
not
considered serviceable, but it is highly recommended that it get
periodic
services.
