Hi

i am planning buying one, but i want to know is it woth to buy one.

 

It depends really what's a car worth to you. If you're looking for reliability, sure. If you're looking for speed, no. Also the year and number of miles.

 

Hi

Ifound a 1975 240D with 113k mi on the clock for $2k, and its wasin a nice condition too. do u think the price is too high, to is it ok?

Thx

 

with that few miles i would say 2k is alright. look for rust and other major issues before leaping but they generaly are very very solid vehicles. I know you will love it.

 

LoL

I test dorve to day andfound out that the enginewas blown, so no way we are going to by that c*ap that guy tried to hide it with loud music. And one question, dose the car have glow plugsor something elsebecause i did not see any glow plug light or glow plugs?
THx

 

Hi Mr 47 - Too bad to hear about the bad engine. Must have quite a sound system if it was trying to hide anything on a diesel engine. They do have glow plugs, they might be the older style, but the light on the dash would be the same. My friend has a 82' 240 and he loves it. He does not care about speed, which is good, since it only has about 68hp or so. If you can find a 4-spd on a 240d, that could help you out with merging on a highway without fearing that you would die. I have a 78' 300D and even that, the merge gets interesting sometimes. Good luck.

 

The lack of glow light sugests one or more of the glow plugs is bad(maybe a fault in the wiring or glow relay). If it still cold starts this could be a sign of good compression. Get away from that loud music joker and his s**t car. Take time and find the right one.
