not a KILL but...

...try to get something like this out of your powerfull US engines...

My car is a 1993 C250D with 590.000km and a minor 125bhp...this picture is taken from my navigation screen and shows the following listings:
Spd: 194 --> current speed 120mph
Avg: 188 --> average speed 115mph
Max: 201 --> maximum speed 125mph
Odo: 134,5 --> distance driven 85 miles



...IMHO this beats any kind of run to he next traffic light...who cares about quarter mile times...DIESEL rulez...

greetingz,

Man, I hate American roads and bull**** speed limits... I remember when my dad drove w/ the whole family in our '89 190D 2.0. We did Paris all the way down to the French Riviera at about 185kmh+ average like it was nothing....here you drive 120kmh, you get a fat *** fine. LOL

I had no idea that the 190D 2.0 could attain such speeds!

hey MBenzNL,
I visited a site a few month's back and it told the whole story of a C250D wich was modified step by step on the site. It was also in the Netherlands.
Could it be you car?
nice run btw!!!
