You've forgotten one thing re 240D and 300D... although the latter has more horses, it's typically "Automatic", OTOH the 240D came typically as a 4 speed manual.... I've driven both and the 240 is much better at accelerating... I guess there is the possibility that the 300D I drove was crap.
cheers, guenter
dangerous to drive they are so
I think the engine is actually rated around 120 hp by MB. Is yours modified?
Yeah, but it is paid for.
I screwed down the wastegate shut to get the factory spec boost and regularly clean the banjo connection.
I woodn't call it muscle car performance but you can definitly feel wen it kicks in.
Of course, but it's fun to reminisce about the slow-coaches. Plus, as you can see, quite a few people still have them.
And the engines are probably more robust because less sophisticated.
Modern diesels and petrol engines are hard tell apart in the driving.
As I have probably said before, a 1.9 l td in a small car like an Alfa Romeo
147... beautiful (to look at and drive).
and my CDI will wipe any of those, join the 21st century and ditch those 25 year old relics
