1977 Mercedes-Benz W123 300D review from Portugal
"It's a wonderful car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The starter clutch stopped working.
The starter run, but it did not engage.
General comments?
This is a wonderful car. I drive it every day. Although the starter was not working good since the moment I bought the car it took 2 years to finally stop working.
It's a pity that it is rusted beyond repairs...
When the time comes that I cannot drive it I will buy another like it!
