Don; I know. The '87 EeDee was a suspect. I think you rode in it. It as was a cross-over year and I got lucky. Confusing times. 124's were replaced by 201's. E300D's were replaced by E300 Compressor's, And after 1989 diesels were no longer sold in the USA. Starting with the 190 class, I lost it. Yep, they came back with diesels in the SUV market built in VA. US mythology: diesels are OK in trucks (pick-ups, SUV's, Semi's and MB ML's). I stooped down to a VW (Diese Beetle, that is) Love the thing (except the built in vase on the dash) My new handle is "Daisy"
