I love my 1991 300D! I average 27 mpg, the car drives like a dream, and it turns heads everywhere I go (although I live in Colorado, where SUVs are the norm, not Mercedes). I must say, however, that parts for this car are not exactly cheap. Everything considered, I can't think of a better car for me to own at this time.
