Well, with 109HP it's not exactly what you would call "quick" but at highway speeds the power / gearing is quite respectable and about the same as my friend's perfect running W124 300D 2.5 turbo. And there's definitely no problem passing at those speeds, even up hills. Overall, it's a very relaxing drive with almost no detectable diesel clatter once fully warm. I've had more than a few surprised passengers when I tell them the car they're riding in is a diesel.
