Re: [MBZ] MB Sales
I wonder how that compares to the 80-85 time period. THey sold a lot of Diesels in the 83-85 time period. I think it was 1983 that I went to the first MBCA meeting of the season, and everyone there had a Diesel! they were all fairly new, (80-83) except mine. And for 20 years most of them were on the road, then were neglected, simply because they were old. Reliable doesn't count.

Re: [MBZ] MB Sales
I know what you mean - my son now has the 78 240D I rebuilt 50K miles ago - he was moving it around the driveway to rep for washing and I was pleasantly surprised to hear it start before it even made 1 revolution! I barely heard the starter - then it fired and ran smoothly. At the time I was rebuilding it I was really nervous - it was my 1st diesel rebuild and my memory was getting worse so I had to keep excellent notes and be very organized. Fortunately it appears everything is holding together really well. Hmmm.. maybe I should ask for it back? ;-) Just turned 312K mi. Yep, I suspect there's plenty of owners on this list that will agree with you about diesel longevity and desirability being at the top of the list where they're concerned.
