1984 Mercedes-Benz W124 230E review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I just bought the car with 240,000 miles on clock and a full service history, so nothing yet.
General comments?
I paid £300 for this beauty and added new wings; I'm also looking for new drivers seat (the previous driver was 23st!). The engine still sounds like new and the ride is amazing considering the mileage.
Everything works perfectly except the vacuum central locking which is a bit sluggish. The bodywork is sound although a respray would restore to immaculate condition. A collectors piece that'll last ages with care.
