Because Everyone Needs a New Automotive Plan

So if nothing else, my automotive decision-making processes are interesting.

Here's the latest candidate - early '80s Mercedes 300 SD turbodiesel. Big, bulletproof, high-20s mpg long-distance cruiser.

Decidely not a sports car, but that's what the '02 can do. Any thoughts from the gallery?

While I personally dislike most Mercedeses (what IS the plural of Mercedes?), the benefit of this particular one is that you can look like a Russian mobster driving it, Vlad.

I agree with Sonnjea. This looks like a dignitary's car ... so, if you ever own it you will have to fly a country's flag on the antenna.

That could work

Is a Russian mobster technically a dignitary?

It's so hard to keep up in the post-Cold-War world...

Opps! Clearly I should have said that I agree with Sonnjea OR it is a dignitary's car.
