I've always been a big big fan of the W123 chassis, Recommend either the 240d 4spd, or 300d turbo diesel, but even then these things are real slow.

These were built at the pinnacle of Mercedes Benz over engineering, I just love the build quality, and the simple mechanical nature of them, hardly any electronics, can be mended with a hammer and a piece of string.

Next time you go to the auto wreckers, open and close a door, you'll see what I mean.




Euro bumpers


A good clean sedan goes for 2-4k from what I've seen, and wagons, even in meh condition are significantly more, dammit if it was cheaper I would have had one already...sigh.

Multi is definitely going to be one of those grumpy old farts.. "Back in my day, you drove cars, they didn't drive you. You could put a 302 & T5 in anything. A bowl of soup was a nickel."

Definitely dig on the 70's MB era. Great styling, excellent build quality. Would love to have one.

I'll always love old MB's. Still miss my old W124 wagon. If only they weren't so damn expensive to maintain.

Those are all slick as fuck.


I must put a Ford 5.0 in a Mercedes with a T5, unfortunately I have no idea how strong their differentials are in those old Benz. Anyone know? I popped the 4 cylinder diff in the E36 5.0 in under a month!

I think it's safe to say that the w124 can be included in this and I've always had a soft spot for it.

I was once punched in the face for defending the 190e





They can be stunning and I heard the manual cosworth(?) AMG version is just insane

Pick-n-Pull » We Sell Cars

$1500

Interior is musty, due to sitting in their yard, complete, except aftermarket steering wheel was stolen, starts but barely idles (could be fuel/carb issue), bubbling on the rr 1/4, rust hole on the lr 1/4, electrics and vacuum seems to work, replaced factory HU with a modern on (yuck). If one were to get this running, drop it a couple of inches and give it a detail, it'd make for a sweet cruiser.

Next time just tell them how Martin Brundle said that the 190e Cosworth was the finest rear-drive chassis he had ever driven...

Spoiler!

Ive had a 300D Turbo Deisal. Bought for $800 with a mint body. No rust just had vac issues (no door locks or engine shut off). Drove it for the summer (used for road trip). Sold for $2500.
300E BOUGHT FOR $800. My dad got rear ended in that thing when he was stopped by a guy doing 80....car still drove fine but was a write off.
190E 2.3 manual....that wa s a fun little car.

All of these cars were great. Only one that was questionable was the 190E. Anything less than a top model was junk. So many little issues with them but they are great looking cars.

This was my wife's first car:


Inlaws bought it new when my wife was born. They intended to keep it until she was old enough to drive, which they did. It was pretty mint until my wife got her hands on it.

Love old benzs, thas why I bought an R129. Always loved them. The car is so solid, quiet, and over engineered like crazy.
