1983 Mercedes-Benz W123 230E review from Australia and New Zealand
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this car.
When I purchased this car it had a noisy fuel pump, which I soon replaced and the air-conditioning is not always cold.
This car's diff is a bit noisy and annoying, and it doesn't run turbine smooth, which I'm not sure if it's meant to anyway.
