I REALLY enjoyed my '80 240D and felt terrible when it was totaled at 16
years and 185 kmi.
Would probably still have it otherwise.

I couldn't help myself, I had to email the seller and ask him about the 
rare 74 W123 and whether it would run on other types of veggie oil apart 
from the fancy stuff.
BTW yesterday I bought some Spanish olive oil in a 4 liter tin for 20 
bucks (which was reduced by 50%) so that works out at 5 bucks/liter. 
Although yes some of the very fancy oils do go up to 25 bucks/liter.

A 240D driver requires a certain mentality, which I happen to possess. You
get there about the same time as the faster guys.

My 240D will go faster than I will want to go. It just takes a couple of
seconds longer to get to that speed.

I am definitely a 240D sort of guy. Boring? Maybe -- but I have to be me.
