1988 Mercedes-Benz W124 300D review from UK and Ireland
"Great means greatness"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Interior lights went and were replaced. Easy, and cost was under a tenner.
General comments?
Unreal. I've had a lot cars in the past, and I always seem to blow them up. This car is a tank. When I first bought the car, I felt like royalty. It was only because my younger brother had a 1997 E280, and said to me I would never regret it if I got a old Merc. I never listen to him. Apart from this 1 time. Damm is the only word I can think of. I drive it like a bat out of hell. And it always takes it with a pinch of salt as to say and yer... love it. Well made. Not like cars today. 1 minute wonders. This car means business.
