This 1982 Mercedes 300SD Turbo Diesel runs and drives so nice!! This non smoker car is from Maryland so it is very clean as you will see in my pictures. The motor runs so good as if it has 40,000 miles. It fires right up in the cold (has the plug in feature also) with no issues. The motor runs cool and has very nice power. The glow plugs and filters are recent. This one has the 5 cylinder turbo diesel that has a great reputation for reliability and dependability. The turbo works great. You can hear the turbo working when you accelerate. It is fun to hear that tune. Plenty of power when you accelerate or when passing. No excessive smoke or blow by. The transmission shifts like brand new in all gears. No delay, slipping, chattering or overquick shifting that would indicate that problems. The car was kept up so nice through the years. You know you are driving a special car as soon as you drive it. The 4 tires are very recent on freshly redone wheels. The wheels are a very light silver. The black paint shines very well and is polished and waxed to protect it. The side and rear window is very lightly tinted to assist in filtering the sun. The suspension feels great. The brakes are 4 wheel disk brakes and they work fantastic. The exhaust is very clean with no leaks. There is nothing done wrong on this car that I can see. The vacuum lines and wiring under the hood is all done right. The power windows, power locks, power sunroof, horn, cruise, and lights are all working. The radio works but the antenna is stuck up. The Air conditioning works very well on this Mercedes. The compressor is like new. The heat works well too. The dash is not all cracked. The palomino seats are Mercedes Benz Text replacment seats and the rear seats are factory leather. The floor mats are palomino factory mats that are new. The tachometer once in a while will not work. The zebrano wood trim in in good shape. The door panels are nice. The rear deck is good. The first aid kit is there. The bottom is solid. You can see the jack hole on the rockers on the car have some rust. In 82 they weren't covered so you can see the rust. They have been filled with spray foam to keep the elements out of the rockers. The car is solid as a rock. There is no accident damage that I can see. The car has so rust bubbles on the paint. The chrome looks nice and bright. The yellow fog lights are a nice feature with clean headlight bezels. I have a clean clear title in hand for this car. I am Mike (I have been working on Mercedes for over 25 years) and I do every step of this. I find, buy, fix, film, advertise, do the paperwork, and deliver every car. I'm sure you are noticing the fuel prices are rising so grab a turbo diesel while the price is good.
