1991 Mercedes-Benz W124 200E review from Netherlands
"My first Mercedes, and certainly NOT my last one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There was a leak in the wiper washer tank, due to dry rubbers. Very easy to fix.
General comments?
Very nice car, which I bought from a Citroen-dealer. This dealer bought the car from an older man who only used it to go to church on Sundays, and sometimes to visit some family. Unbelievable, but in 14 years the car has made only 65000 kilometres (40.000 miles)! So it was no surprise the car drives like new... Well, I always say: it is possible to drive a new Mercedes for only 3,500 Euros (approx $4,000).
The only disadvantage is that the car has no air conditioning, power windows and armrest in the middle for the driver.
But the heating is very good, and separated for the left and right part of the cabin.
