I loved my '75 240D, but with me helping out [some] the mechanic managed to change it in only about 8 hours because they got my permission to drill around the center bolt. Since I can't do it myself, I'd stick with '76s and up[isn't that when it moved to an under-dash blower?]. Thus far my '62 200Sb was my first and favorite - especially since it 'died' and I didn't.

I replaced the blower motor in one of the 240D's I used to own. I sold the second 240D when its blower motor failed!

I'd think the suspension and engine upgrades of the 123s would win out, but I've never owned either. Don't these have the impossible heater blower fans?
