Yes, you are correct. I am a decade off. EeDee is a '95 W124. Ex takes good care of it and I still am consulted (bust my knuckles). I always thought the 201's succedes the 124's.
As far as the clatta, clatta goes, --- urban myths. Courtesy transport from the dealer where my car was towed to after the immobilizer went bunkers picked me up in a brand new Jetta wagon. The driver told me it was a diesel. 10:33 PM, OK Don <okd...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hans - you've been feeling the flower power a bit too much lately -- > I thought EeDee was a '95.
