Well- never mind the same person who can't READ what i write... A 200, as I said, won't really increase the speed- my 109 can cruise the highway just fine without a turbo at the same speed as a 110 w/200. The 200 wouldn't make it any faster, but would make up for the lack of power the NA diesels have on hills. Night and day difference on hills.
ANYWAY- the 2.5 isn't worth swapping to, but if one falls in your lap when a 2.25 expires, they are slightly more efficient and will produce about the same driving experience with less smoke. I've driven 2.5 equipped 110's back to back against my 2.25 109- no real difference, but the 2.5 smokes a bit less and isn't a bad way to go.
People are paying stupid money for old crapped out 200's in the US. I just can't imagine why, but I've seen junkyard 200's selling for thousands. I don't hate the 200, but I don't buy into the fad/hype that it is better than a V8.
