Nate,
My '85 300D has a mechanical speedo.
Like you mentioned, I thought all 123s did, and SDs had electronic.
The MB performed as it should for the trip up north, 800 miles at 23.5
mpg (about normal with a lead foot)

I have a coat, though had to move some of the plants into the hothouse
until it warms up around here.
