 “Mercedes built the car to last. and many are still on the road today. As a testament to the car's longevity. it is popular in Africa as a bush taxi. covering thousands of miles of rough roads with only basic maintenance. The 3. 0-liter inline 5 diesel in the 300D. while lacking in power. is considered to be one of the most reliable engines ever built. The timeless design is sure to last as long as the car itself. making this car a classic that is here to stay. ” (Hagerty. 1984 300D Turbo-Diesel. 2014).

Why buy this one!

1. I got this car from my friend who happens to be a Mercedes Diesel expert. Pete goes over all of these cars before buying them and drives the kinks out of them. then fixes and tunes them to its optimal performance. He keeps them. makes them perfect. enjoys them and then sadly must sell them. This was one that I have had the pleasure of owning.  It has been vacuum tuned and runs quicker than all of them.  All of the fluids. oils and filters have been replaced or checked and/or changed and will be checked again prior to purchase.

2. Stringent Virginia State Inspection has just been completed. You don't get a sticker in Virginia unless the brakes. lights. steering. horn. windows and more are acceptable for the road.  

3. None of these cars are exactly alike in how they perform and drive. Do not let the 200xxx mileage fool you because this is not even broken in for these machines. Reliability is an understatement. This one. none of them ever let me down. I feel confident that this car will go anywhere. For those of you that do not know about these cars. they all are reliable. but this one is tight. smooth as silk. quick. cruise at 80 and up all day long. low temperature. no rattles.

Best part about this 300D is the way it moves on down the road.  She can be driven and driven and driven anywhere.

4. The Mercedes was purchased from the original owner three years ago.
