Also, in 1980 was the 300SD a turbo?  I thought the turbodiesel started in
1981 ...

All "S" series diesel (1st one in the US was a '79 model year car sold in late '78 as I recall) were turbos. As to the flush headlights, must have just been Euro headlights, the US versions has a pair of small round sealed beams on each side. Top speed was rated at 103 mph (but various people have tweaked them a bit higher).
