I’m still driving a 1984 Mercedes 300D turbo diesel, which is probably heavier and definitely not in the same shape as that 5 series, but I still get 25mpg combined and haven’t sunk a dime into it in years.

Great car...good for millions of miles....and you can fix most things yourself with spare parts from the pick n pull.....but you might want to get an occasional tune up and re-furbished injectors.

The 300D is one of the finest cars ever built, IMHO.
