New to w201 forum

Hey everyone, I normally spend my time in the w123 forum, as I have an 83 300D. However, its starting to have a number of problems that I cant keep up with, and honestly, as much as I've gotten used to the mellow drive, and sturdy tone of the diesel, I think I need something a little newer, and a little faster and more nimble.

So I found a few newer 190 2.3's and I just was wondering, how quick are they, I'm not looking for a sports car, just something that can pickup decently. If its been taken care of how reliable are they?
What things should I look into if I buy it (ie: timing chain, ect...)

Any help would be great and thank you.
