You think the 300D is slow, you should drive a 240D.
Car looks great for its age though!

Can you imagine if it wasn't a turbo haha. My uncle had the wagon version. I swear it was like 0-60 in a weekend!

Looks great tho!

Wow. That thing is unbelievably clean for an '84 and with that many miles. They didn't call it the million mile engine for nothing. Jealous. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Getting the Wheeling Fever
Nice. I used to have a 240D in college. I used to drive it through town, and around corners wide open throttle.

When traveling, I could wedge my shoe under the brake pedal and push the throttle to the floor as a kind of cruise control. The car would top out at 73 MPH on the flats.

It was the only car I could drive full throttle for hours on end. Fun car.
