turbo

Selling my father's 1984 MB 300TD turbo diesel wagon.

Wagon is currently in northeastern Ohio, near Cleveland and Pittsburgh, but can be delivered to the Boston area easily.

Approx. 215K miles, three owners, very good mechanically and cosmetically. Car is light yellow in color with camel interior. Very comfortable seats.

Cruise control module is surge-y, but new module is on hand and will go with the car.

Asking $5500 or best offer.

I have an 82 vanagon camper with a 1.9 jetta diesel engine installed by the previous owner. I bought it from him in Colorado and the Colorado mechanic recommended putting a turbo on it to give it more horsepower and gas efficiency. However I cant find anyone in TX to do it, well at least in the Dallas area. So i was wondering if anyone knew how to do it or knew anyone in Texas or close to Texas that would do it.

Hi folks,

I'm selling a 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300D TurboDiesel (2.5 L engine). I bought this car a year and a half ago to run on biodiesel, but family issues have caused me to ditch those plans and sell the car. I bought it in a suburb of Philadelphia and promptly drove it all the way home to St. Louis with no problems whatsoever. The car only has 99,xxx original miles and will probably last for hundreds of thousands more. It is also in excellent physical condition for its age. It is white with only minor scratches and dings. Nothing is missing, absolutely no rust, etc. The paint still looks great, too. The dark blue interior is immaculate... no cracks in the dash, seats, etc. All are in very good condition. Sunroof works great and does not leak. I added a new Alpine MP3 stereo system that can connect your iPhone, iPod, or other USB device. Like most of the 300Ds, this one gets great gas mileage... upper 20s in the city and around 35 mpg on the highway. Once again, it was never converted for vegoil or made ready for biodiesel, but that's easy enough to do for anyone interested. It's rare to see one of these cars with this low mileage and in this great shape, so I don't expect it to be on the market long, and I would love for someone interested in biodiesel and/or SVO to get it. The car is centrally located in St. Louis, Missouri.

I'm asking $6,000 obo.

Please contact me at kopper65 (at) gmail.com or call and leave me a message at (314) 266-8472.

Thanks,
Jeff Kopp
St. Louis, Mo.
