A rather large number of HIGHWAY driven '98-99 E300TDs have rolled up
well over 200kmi - mostly without major problems. It's a matter of how
much they are driven and for how long. A diesel driven 25-30kmi a year
will probably last for 250-300kmi, but one driven 10 kmi a year won't
last 250-300kmi. The new cars will NOT last a long time - they are only
expected to least about 10-15 years so 100-150kmi is about as long as
they will go.
