oops I did put 240D you're right. must have been the late hour but I was still thinking 190D 5 speeds are not that common

Yep, 190D 5-speeds are about a dime a dozen and they won't fix OM61x engines.

will they fit 603's??

Any OM60x.

Arg. this is just what i am looking for. now that i have my 190D 2.5T i am looking for a parts car that is a 5 speed, so i can do a swap. If it were under 1000 miles away from me, i would consider trying to pick on up, but at this distance i see it as too far.

Hillside NJ......Im about 45 minutes away. Very tempted. Whats a fair price for 2 parts cars??

I would drive a 190D 2.2 5 speed.. total mpg car

If I was into 190s, I would jump on them if I lived in your neighborhood. I think that a 190 with a fiver will get allot better MPG than any 123 with a fiver and there nice cars.

I would pay 3K if they weren't too bad. (if he didn't except my "low ball" offer). Think what you could do with a 'cream puff" 190 that had a toasted tranny (bought unbelievably cheap) AND having TWO parts cars with 5 spds. You'd be set Of course takes an understanding wife
