Awesome! There's a soft spot in my heart for cars like this

I wish I had the resources to do it right at the time.
Man I'm jealous, that's one of my favorites

And then I decided to try and beat it in my other uncle's 2.0l 5-speed 190E.

I don't think I'll ever get to experience that again!
I had a 1982 Mercedes 300d Turbo Diesel that was as slow as could be but man was it nice to drive. Just a totally unique experience to any american cars I'd driven.
