Yes. Car has issues but I drove it back without issue from Raleigh, with one stop at JR's Cigars. Car had torque, no power. Replaced the overboost solenoid and power is much better. Trying to figure out the EGR system and bypass all that crap. The car was clunking in every gear but I found a disconnect in the vacuum spaghetti. Still clunks some but not nearly as bad. Needs new struts up front but rides like a dream on the highway at 80. Not at all like the W123's. That extra sound wall makes all the difference in the world. Klima is not working at all, checked the fuses last night. Most look crappy but all appeared serviceable. Body is cream puff not a scratch or ding. Interior is pretty good the drivers power seat needs fixing and the rear windows and door jamb wiring needs attention. I think with a marginal amount of work this is going to be one nice ride. The only bad thing is tapping from the front end, however I understand that the hydraulic tappets are pretty easy to replace so hoping that will solve it. The injectors all need to be pop tested and cleaned, will be doing that as soon as money permits.
