Re: [MBZ] Leather Likelihood
someone told me recently, that the fuel mileage of a 2.5 manual is not appreciably different than that of a 2.2 manual? I believe this myself. If we can ever get our 190D manual 2.5 deployed we'll have some more numbers. But IIRC it's 35-42, depending on conditions. -- Jim
Re: [MBZ] Leather Likelihood
I see what you're saying. I kinda realized that after i had sent him my email with a bunch of questions. I realized that, hey, even if the engine is bad, I get a replacement and still am not that bad off. And I've gotten the 2.2 five speed I'm seeking. And thanks, Clay for the link to the decent looking 190D. I am pretty insistend on a manny though. I do wonder how accurate it is, however, what someone told me recently, that the fuel mileage of a 2.5 manual is not appreciably different than that of a 2.2 manual? Brian On 5/21/07, Kaleb C.

Re: [MBZ] Leather Likelihood
Yep that's Leather Brian. My first 240 D had Leather Interior, No Sun Roof, No Power Windows, No Power Pass. Mirror, And an Auto Tranny. Powder Blue Exterior and Dark Blue Interior. I talked to the Original Owner after I bought it. And asked why none of the Power Eqpt. He said he rather have the Leather than all the junk. Russ W.
