 Thats 0-60 kph, right?

 Otherwise, WTF did you do to it? The E300TD Estate (wagon) (606.962) is
 9.2 or so, the sedan (210.025/606.962) is 8.5 (I can personally attest to
 that latter figure evil smile)

Aaah... Mine is factory-done, and I don't think I can do too much with it 
since its that darned electronic injection pump... (is 15hp or so  worth

EIGHT SECONDS? For a two-ton car with 15X horsepower and an automatic?
If anybody but you had said it, Marshall, I never would have believed
it. Since you DID say it, though, I'm very impressed.

 

Actually, I think the car is rated at 177 hp. It is no rocket and I wish
it had the M104 engine - 217 HP.
