1983 Mercedes-Benz W123 300D review from North America
"The best and last car I'll ever own"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioning hose leaked. Had to buy a whole new system because we no longer use Freon.
General comments?
This car is my baby. Already know who gets it when I'm no longer able to drive. Looks and drives like showroom condition.
