After those couple of times it seemed to rectify itself & was fine.
Until a couple of...
Sold my Diesel Multivalve a few days ago, so looking to replace it with either another Multivalve or a 12v Diesel, I have never owned a 12 valve, but the bodies look in better condition and some have some nice check upholstery and even velour . Please can someone highlight the differences...

I've recently aquired a nice 300D multivalve estate W124.

Just two weeks ago I have purchased the car of my dreams a W124 300D Multivalve, estate.
It ran on diesel without any problems, than I've filled it up with 70 litres of WVO and 5 litres of unleaded. The car behaved very well and I was enjoying the smell of Chinese food coming out of the...
So I start my diesel up this morning (pretty cold) and it is rough and rather strangled, slip it into D and it stalls. Does it again, then is fine when I apply a decent amount of revs, but still needs throttle at idle to stop it stalling at the end of the road. Thereafter no problems. Just...

Hi
I'm looking for a w124 E300d multivalve for around the £1,000 mark, a wee bit either side doesn't matter. I'm located either in Daventry or Edinburgh.
