No way to prove the mileage to my knowledge since it is the old style that resets at 100K. It was at 999 miles when I got it and I have put about 1500 miles on it so far. Hope to do better next summer. I made 11 trips to the lake this past summer but only one was with the Mercedes. Went out and back the same day and never missed a beat. About 350 miles round trip according to the odometer. Ran 60-70 mph throughout and did about 28 mpg (on imperial gallon). Temp guage was steady and oil pressure pegged the whole way. I was happy.

And register your car with them as it makes it easier if you ever need to use their free Roadside Assistance (free fuel if you run out, free jump, free tire change...other stuff is NOT free) - very nice service.

Some are no longer available - most are. I think I got the last W123 240D, becuase now I'm photocopying it for friends and I only bought it cuz W115 240D was out of print (my other two were still available) - ANYWAY, they tell you all the PM that needs done at what intervals. You can do it all yourself, sign the book yourself, etc. There are a ton of people and resources here to help you do the work as it comes up. Chris
