The very first time the Mercedes OM617 5 cylinder turbo diesel powered the 2001 Lexus IS300 and driving around the neighborhood, this is from a couple years ago. And the car has driven several hundred miles. With good mpg.   
But I currently have it deregistered and can not drive it on public roads legally.
