hello ladies and gents,
it's been a couple of weeks since my last post and have decided that as i'm sick of modern cr*p cars (MB inc.) i'm going to look for a good 124 series. i've had two or three of these in the past (230's) and know how good they are. problem is i'm not sure whether to go for a 280 or a 300d, reckon there are too few well specced 220's about. i have a round trip of 20 miles to work with 50-50 dual carriageway and town driving with longer runs at the weekend, so probably 8-9k per year with this car. fuel consumption will probably have very little in it, what about servicing? you can see the quandry.
i appreciate that this question will probably have been asked before, but couldn't find an answer in the search.
any advice is greatly appreciated.
cheers
simon
