Hi!. Im since 20+ years a taxidriver in Holland. Always drove Mercedes. First one was a '85 200d gated 4speed... Went from that to a '98 W210 200CDI, to a 2001 200CDI. In snowwhite. Never let me down in 300K miles. Then back to a '92 300d OM603 W124 automatic. Leather seats, airco, tempomat. What else do you need in life. Then to a W210 320D, wich still does its thing as a taxi. After a brief ownership with a terrible W221 350D, i traded it in for a S400d. Love it.
