Try ebay. That's probably your best bet.

A 250D or 300D are the SVO engines. A W124 series Diesel is very sought after so you may get a better deal on an early newer W210 300TD

Anything diesel and not cdi should run fine on veg. The best engine is probably the w124 multivalve 300 diesel and can be recognised by the vent in the driver's side wing; you should get a decent saloon one for £2000.

Or, you might get a c250 turbodiesel, which will be quicker but it is not such a well built car as the w124.

I run mine on 100% veg absolutely fine.
