Re: [MBZ] My 240D adventure
What color is the interior? Burgundy? Love the exterior color, but wow! I’m not sure I’m good with that interior color combination. It’s almost monochromatic. Otherwise, looks nice. And now that you have it, you’ve decided you really didn’t want another 240D after all, right? I’ll give you $500 for it. OK, $600, but you have to have the title in hand.

Re: [MBZ] My 240D adventure
Btw now that I am used to driving one of these again I can get this 240d moving pretty quick. The only problem is being stuck on a 2 lane highway behind somebody going 55 and you want to go 65. No way you can pass then in a 240d, or at least I did not want to try it.
