1980 Mercedes 300D Trying To crash

These are some clips of the car before it became a field vehicle. before the second time we drove over the tree that broke the radiator, and the exhaust manifold. dosn't shift till very high rpms, and slow for sure. but man that was a cool car!

Yeah, sorry, I had to get rid of it about 6 years ago. But for sure, it was still strong the whole time. Gotta love 5 cylinder Mercedes Diesels :) If you can ever find one for the road, they really are some pretty awesome cars. Pretty good on fuel mileage too. And you can do the Veggie diesel conversions to the too, so they run on used veg oil you pick up for free from restaurants. Can't beat that :)

@marinodelfino

Boring maybe, or at the least, possibly uninteresting.  But pathetic??? Sorry sir, but no.

@maharef

I wasn't really trying to crash, and the car was in pretty bad shape. I was just having a good time with a junker :)

For sure man, can't kill them, and they take the bumps, and abuse so damn well. A turbo would have been awesome. Drew's got a 300SD for a road vehicle now a days, and thats a nice car. Huge compared to the 300D. Want me to send you a video of us field beating this beast?

[BmxDieseldude]

these cars are the ultimate feild/woods car abuse machine. buy it for pennies. can't kill it. you sell off anything useable like the grill, lights, seats, ect. and you make all your money back. also pretty easy to make some okay ooomph if you've got a turbo model.

Yeah man, they do some crazy intense drifting. They are SERIOUSLY good. :)

We've had some powerfull rear wheel drive cars that can do that. A black infiniti q45 that was a blast man :) If i come across a cadilac and its really cheap i'll snatch it up for sure. I'll send you the infiniti video. A loud, 300HP V8 powered rear wheel drive 4000 pound nissan is alot of fun... :) Thats what we discovered from those cars.  Much nicer cars then cadilacs for sure.
