On a blower motor, the book gives a shop time of 20 hours of labor.  If you
go through the speaker hole in the dash, -supposedly- this cuts it to 8-10
hours.  And you'll mangle your hands.  Plan on an entire weekend.

Those silly Germans built the car around the blower motor.  They fixed this
in the 123 and subsequent cars.

They feel a bit "breathless" at highway speeds due to the low gearing
(84 mph is the top speed with an auto, you might get a couple more mph
out of a standard).

A long trip on the interstate might be tiring, but they DO go forever
on fuel, usually in the mid 30's on the road.  I used to drive mine
(when it ran) for three weeks on a tank of fuel to and from work.

They are SLOW on acceleration, you should drive it a bit before you buy
it, it can get quite scary of you forget.  You will spend quite a bit
of time with your foot to the floor in normal traffic.
