I'd like to compare my 2.5 diesel

I have a w124 250d 1992.
Anyone live near Uttoxeter, Staffs who owns similar who would give me some comparisons on performance etc as I reckon its not performing to its full potential.

What is it that you want to compare? i had one of these for 18 months, and to pit it politely, they are very sluggish.

I have had the car for only a month but it is very slow through the gears. I guess I will have to get used to it.
I reckon it takes about half a minute to get to 60 and there is no point putting it in top until you are doing at least 55-60 mph cos it wont pull its own weight till then !

Sorry to be the bringer of doom, but that sounds about right.
