1992 Mercedes-Benz W124 230E review from UK and Ireland
"A car to keep a long long time, if you can find a good one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine mounts replaced - only £100.
Aircon Fan - £150.
Bonnet catch broke.
Aircon sensor.
Rust in rear wheel arches (Dirt is trapped in lip)
General comments?
A fantastic car.
I got 30mpg on the motorway and about 27mpg on A-roads.
It really only needed routine maintainance and a few minor repairs.
Regret parting with it for a 1998 E240.
