1978 Mercedes-Benz W123 230C Coupe review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have recently renovated this car from a £300 wreck because I love the shape and its timeless stature, however I have to agree that they are rot boxes as I have done extensive welding and with the help of specialist suppliers of spare parts on the web, the car is now near concours.
General comments?
A lovely car if looked after, any help e-mail me on jonathan@tomsworld.net
