1989 Mercedes-Benz W124 260E review from UK and Ireland
"It's a damn shame they don't make them like this anymore!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
4 new tyres needed, a new exhaust system, non cat. new leads and plugs, and a ball joint. air cond gas topped up, yes it's still working.
General comments?
Unbelievable car, it still looks great at 16 years old and I will not part with it, the leather interior is still good eveything works on it even the cruise control, it feels like it could last forever, as long as these cars are looked after they just keep on truckin!
