Mitch intimated: I bought my W116SD for two reasons. Firstly, I would have paid 2-4x as much for a good running rustfree 1980's turbo VW (snip)
See that's nutty to me. Is it just that there are fewer older VWs available than older MBs? Or that they are so popular with young people? (I suppose a teen or 20-something would prefer to be given a sporty-looking VW than a 123). Or is it that a lot of those whose tastes lean toward MBs can afford newer ones, and thus the demand is lower? (of course now we must factor in the growing popularity of diesels among those interested in alternative fuel possibilities). Brian Yes, I'm a curious person.
