Hi folks - am a newbie here, but not to other MB fora. Am a fairly recent convert to MB, haven driven VWs most of my life. Bought a W201 for my then-High School aged daughter and the thing was a very impressive piece of machinery for being (then-17, now 20 years old.) Always wanted a wagon, and picked up a super sweet 94 18 months ago. I am totally hooked. Now I am afraid I have the "diesel bug" and I am looking at adding to the fleet with an old W123 wagon that is nice enough to take a near-perfect factory rebuiltmotor and tranny I have found. There certainly are a lot of ways to spend money on these things, eh? Oh yeah, I'm in the DC metro area, in suburban Maryland.

 

Well even though i have comment on ur posts b4 this is ur formal welcome to the site.

Hello from Mount Airy, MD and welcome to the site! I think diesel bugs must be common here, all 3 of us are from MD and have diesels. Coincidence? I think not
