- 1992 W124 E250D
Hi All,
I've just joined, having been an Alfa Romeo fan most of my car career, I've branched out and bought an old dog of a W124 with a view of restoring it and using it as a daily runner. It's a 1992 w124 E205D saloon.
My first question is, what other Diesel engines from Merc can I put in this model? It's the normally aspirated 2.5d which is fine but it's needing a rebuild and I'm considering just dropping it out and replacing it; with what I don't know.
I'm not bothered about pace i.e. I'm not trying to break the land speed record and would replace it with a healthy OM 602 but they are rare (in good condition) so I'm open to suggestion.
Thanks for any info in advance.
