Howdy from Washington!
Hey dudes and chicks, I don't have a Mercedes diesel yet. The 240D, with a four speed manual, is the car I intend to buy and so I have come here to learn about them. Sorry if this post is in the wrong place, seemed like as good a spot as any for an introduction. I didn't see any stickies put up by old hands sick of answering new guy questions. So if y'all that have been posting on this board for a long time know of any threads that you think a MB Diesel cherry should see, send them my way. I don't know about the rules concerning posting other sites, but if there's any other websites you reckon I should see, well I'd love to hear from you. Thanks in advance.
