Kevin, Yes, you can apply that money to a 240D, but you'll still have a low power, smaller, worse handling vehicle than the 1980 300SD. And you can buy a kit on eBay for $450 to replace the servo system. I have a 1980 300SD which now has around 420,000 miles. I finally replaced the trans about 2 years ago. It still has the original exhaust system and has never had the head off or any other major work. I had it unregistered for about a year, sitting in the garage, but it's the wife's car and she wanted it drive-able, so I've started getting things back in order. All that remains is getting the AC back in order when it gets warm. There is no comparison between the ride of a 240D and a 300SD. Yes, the price may be a bit high, but if all is OK, start negotiating. I got mine at 186,000 miles over 20 years ago and I've never regretted it. Roger Hale Dinnerware Classics, Inc.
