1978 Mercedes-Benz W123 300D T review from North America
"A safe, secure, economical and reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The power windows are working, but I guess the last owner was fumbling with the electrical system, but I am fixing it.
The brakes need to be serviced.
General comments?
I bought this car a few months ago and I am very happy with it.
It is very spacious and comfortable, with plush seats and great legroom.
The engine and transmission are in great shape and wow, the fuel mileage is incredible! She gets over 700kms on a tank of diesel.
A great car and a pleasure to own. I would recommend this car to anyone.
