1991 Mercedes-Benz W124 200E review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I get hot air when I want cold, the radiator drains of water but nobody can find where it goes to.
The automatic choke works when it feels like it and lots of other little things go wrong.
It is sluggish and underpowered.
General comments?
Personally I think Mercedes are way over rated and really very very bad value for money.
But if your ego is bigger than your brain you can probably overlook the fact you could buy a far superior car for a third of the price you pay for a Merc.
Overall I think after driving one for two years they are rubbish.
