My Dad had one of these Mercs when I was about 14 (20+ years ago) it was a 280TD and it wasn't very fast either. It had a three speed auto box. And it was yellow. I drove it into the garage door when they were on holiday once. Oops. The first car I was ever in charge of and I crashed it at 0.5 miles per hour.
