I am not certain how they differ, but my 1974 240D is an excellent
highway car. Fuel economy is impressive, and it gets up and cruises
all day at 75mph with no problems. It also has very little wind
noise, and feels very stable. When climbing steep grades, the speed
goes down drastically, and I have to be somewhat easy on it to keep
from pegging the temp gauge. I just drove mine from Corvallis, OR to
Crescent City, CA and back a month ago, and it worked excellent. If
you need to cruise over 75mph, go the speed limit up hills, or hit
the speed limit before the end of the onramp it may not be your ideal
car.

Beside all the normal slow to accelerate stuff, what is the general

driven and owned 115 chassis 220Ds as HIGHWAY cars. I have a real

I have come
across well maintained, standard, low rust, relatively low miles all
records ect for low dollars.
What are the bad actors on the car please. I have only messed with 123
chassis 240D and 300D
non turbo stuf.
You thoughts please.
