1993 Mercedes 300D turbo - oldbeaver - 06-18-2013
Hello to all. Finally I got it! My own original Mercedes diesel turbo.
My version came to Chile from Asia, as it has a service label stamped on it with chinese-like characters, even I cannot guarantee in which country it lived his first years. I bought it recently, with 245.000 km.
Would like to share experiences with all.

Here are the only pictures of my car I have so far. I can take more tomorrow.
The car is still under mechanic and body improvements.
After I put all right, my Project is to install a custom trip computer in the car. I have the idea about how to do it.
But first things, first.
Best regards to all,

If you have black interior then I have the same car.
My fenderwells are showing some rust under the rubberized spray.
At some point you may want to remove the cladding to see the rest of the body for any signs of rust.
The mileage is still quite low.

Can you send a picture of it? I don´t know what it is. I attached a picture of my car.

Yes, I have black interior. Congrats to you too! Hablas español, pero eres de acá? Este auto lo conseguí en el norte. Acá en Vitacura sólo hay autos nuevos.
Do you have some expertise and info of yr car?
