Hello all
I have been looking at old mercedes diesels lately and thought I would ask the guys who know a bit about them what they think.
I quite like the look of the old 1980s 250D and that goes up to somehwere in the 90's I believe.
There is a 1989 one knocking around on Ebay or Autotrader at the moment for a few hundred pounds and I have had a look at a mid 1990s one that is closer to a grand or so.
If looked after are they fairly alright cars, I dont know any Mercedes owners apart from my dad who used to own a 190 and loved it but that was many years ago and it was a petrol.
My brother keeps telling me that 80s cars will be shot at and is a bit wary of the quality of the 90s cars, knowing little myself I thought I would ask you guys for opinions.
I can only scrape about £800 or so at the moment, is it worth it or should I just get a mint 1 litre grandfathers Nissan micra for £400 lol
