1976 Mercedes-Benz W123 200 review from Germany
"Reliable and dependable - Worth it's work"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only have to exchange some bearings, joints and the shock absorbers. I only have to weld some lower floor parts, infected by rust.. No big deal.
General comments?
This car is so strong, safe and very reliable. It will do it's Job sure for another decade.
I had my first Job in a MB Dealership and
know the Quality of Mercedes did not improve from this time.
The actual Models like C E and S Class have much more work and damages on them.
I will not let my W123 leave me.
Looking forward to spring!
