I think it's a 240D rather than a 200D , and I wonder if the indicators light is original or from US specification ? Though the car is french and has no objective reason to be US -- Last edit: 2008-05-24 09:32:16 |

It´s even better, it´s a rather rare 240D 3.0 1975-76. The forerunner to the 300D. |

Originally for Italy, since only front fenders lights do exist. in the US this car was already named "300 D Diesel" |

electra225 is correct, it has Italian repeater on the front fender. Don't forget the fog light at the rear |

And the special rear bumper. |

Interesting. What about Italian over 2000 cc taxes? Didn't include diesels? |

Sorry rljuna2, but back fog lights weren't required in Italy. This was in Belgium. |

Last Sunday I saw such a 240 D 3.0 on a local oldtimer-meeting. I wasn't striked by the car itself, more by the white 1968/69 steering-wheels, which the owner has cobbled on the 1974+ steering column. I thought, the pre- and post-1974 columns were too different, so that this shouldn't be possible. |

I am still learning everyday, ingo |

You're welcome. I still have a question, which noone could answer, also not here, where I've asked that already, so one again: Why were hazard-lamps and lamp-flashers illegal in Italy in the late 60ies and early 70ies? They were disconnected at all import cars and some Italian cars even hadn't included the cables and relais for it. And annother tiny question: What was the reason of the Austrian law in that years, that the light for the back license plate had to flash, when you have used the lamp-flashers? |

I don't know and I think it is a really good question Perhaps we can ask our Italian and Austrian friend to answer our question |

I've done so, but no answer until now. |
