1991 Mercedes-Benz W124 300TE-24V review from UK and Ireland
"The daddy high performance estate"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator broke at top hose
Thermostat housing broke at top hose
Auxilary fan resistor fault
Occasional Traction Control fault.
General comments?
The car is a sport-line estate with 7 seats.
It cost the same as a 1993 Renault Espace, but is a lot faster, more comfortable and costs no more to run or repair.
Some small rust spots, but otherwise A! condition.
230+ bhp from 3 litre straight six that sounds glorious at the 7,000 rpm limit even after 150,000 miles.
