  • nice work,240D very good car ;-)

  • @werlooos90 thankyou, thankyou for nice words! ;)

  • @coolakiIlen007 can you tell me the interpret of the song "under the bordwalk" - it´s a nice version. thx

  • @werlooos90 sorry, i don't quite understand. why i chose it?

  • @coolakiIlen007i want to no the interpret - originaly it is from the Drifter´s, but not the version you have on the video. who dose this version.

  • @werlooos90 ah, it's Bruce Willis and The Temptations. ;) it is indeed a good version!

  • @werlooos90 ah, it's Bruce Willis and The Temptations ;) it is indeed a good version!

  • @werlooos90 Ah. It is Bruce Willis and The Temptations. ;)

  • @coolakiIlen007 Ha,Ha, Unbelievable. Thanks, and have fun with your 240 Diesel

  • @werlooos90 Indeed!

    Thankyou i will! ;)

  • you could have pained it in some more interesting color ... :)

  • @AldaryLV hehe sure, but that would take much more paint to paint the bonnet, roof, trunk all door poles. + it looks so boring when the inside of doors are adifferent colour. i like the beige one, and you cant really tell its quite matte, much of the primer surface went trought so the surface is not so smooth. but im happy with it! ;)

  • @coolakiIlen007

    thats the main thing that you like it yourself ;)

  • Ser fint ut, häftigt med mercedes stjärnan i backspegeln ;-) du verkar har gjort mycket jobb med den och bra blev det.

  • @Carlipc hehe ja, stjärnan är från en av farfars gamla fen mercor, (antagande efterson den var mycket större än min) och det är även han som hjälp mig mycke med den. Tack så mycket för fina ord! ;)

    tänkte också passa på att fråga vad drar en 230 per mil?

  • @coolakiIlen007 jaså okej, den drar ca 1.2 milen :-)

  • @Carlipc oj, ja då är det tur att den är skattebefriad. men den är ju till för finkörning så de spelar ingen roll. ;)

  • @coolakiIlen007 precis, men den är ju avställd och o besiktigad sen många år tillbaka men ska väl ta tag i att besiktiga den i vår sen :-)

  • @Carlipc a de tycker jag! är den avställd i videon också? eller har de varit nått problem som lett till avställningen?

  • @coolakiIlen007 Jajemen det är den, nej men vi ställde in den för vintern och sen blev det att den fick stå.

  • @Carlipc a de e la ganska vanligt. :P min farfar har en w124 230E -88 som kamkedjan gick av på, men han bytte den själv sen funka den skitbra bara att han tyckte den passa bättre på gården ute i skogen där den stått 5 år nu snart.. va ute och startade den för lite drygt ett år sen, funka felfritt bara att det var en läcka i bränslet. :P har ett klipp när vi startar den också. ;) ville renoverat den också men vet inte hur de blir med de.. :P

    men ni borde absolut besikta 230:in! ;)

  • @coolakiIlen007 okej ska kolla på filmen sen. Ja det blir nog så vill ju gärna ha han och åka i nästa sommar :-)

  • Nice job ! Nice music ! :-)

  • @w124250d1992 thankyou! ;) well good enough for me. :) i've checked the ebay site and found the gummi seals! with the transport they were only 500 swedish crowns or ~ 45-50 euro for all 4! :) great tip, i thank you again!

    greetings.

  • @coolakiIlen007 The pleasure was all mine :-) 45-50 Euro for all 4 ?! That is a lot less than what I paid ! Good deal !

  • Please more MB videos! And expecially about the 230E when/if your grandpa starts to restore it with you

  • @Mikotiini yeah, more will be comming, especially next year we might get to the 230E aswell. ;) hopefully..

  • Nice work. I see that you've bought w123 instead your grandpa's w124 which were we talking about some time ago. Are you going to restore that old W124 or not?

  • @strzaly yes, this w123 was owned by an ex schoolmates father and sat about 1km from my house.. :) if i hadnt bought it, the cousin to the family would have used it running around on the fields..

    And yes that was the intension, i still wanna restore the 230E real bad but now my grandpa says theres no point. dunno but looking at the body its still in better cond. than my w123 was, still its been on high grass. we'll see perhaps next summer i might go there and hopefully pursuade my grandpa.. :P

  • I always love these old style W123 Mercedes-Benz cars, the reason why is that they're the most longest lasting cars in the world. It's one of my favorite Mercedes-Benz vehicles ever in the world. :)

  • @b67717 yes! ;) wouldnt be worth restoring another car this age, especially not after sitting many years. the best engineered cars ever. i was thinking of doing a trip through europe sometime in it. ;) not for certain though but i dont hecitate it would make it.

  • nice work and your benz really needed it it,s pretty rusty some off these w123 rust a lot and some stay nice mine was out in a field for 8 yrs and there was no bodywork at all and here in holland it raines a lot and still mine survived don,t know why all it had was a seized clutch and after towing it in gear the clutch came loose and i drove it home even still had brakes mercedes are tough love them

  • @thechurchowl27e yeah! it rains alot here to plus we get much snow in the winter, other cars use to get their roof flattened. but not the mercs.. :) still mine ran great only abit ceased brakes and after a while the clutch cylinder broke cus of dried out rubber.. one indicator lamp was changed for the electrics. :) just great car, my grandpa has a w124 -88 230E which been sitting almost 5 years, and still works. :) maybe gonna save it next summer..

  • check out my video of my W123 240D, it has been in my family since 1976 and its in really good condition, the only things thats not in perfect condition is underneath it, its a little bit oxidated, but im going to let it be fixed

  • these cars deserve a second life, good job ! :P

  • @jasonvoorhees1428 Thank you! yes they do indeed. not many cars this age is worth spending money on, even newer ones, unlike mercs which are.. :) ive got vids of taking it off the field were it sat before. :)

  • '83 240D of mine could use some lovin but she runs fine and gets me where I need to go. Any advise on dent removal? Eventually I'm going to do similar to you and strip her down, sand her and repaint but she's got some dents (small ones) Shall I just use body filler? Great car though and she deserves it. 

  • @TimLenhartTech Hi! yeah fillar mostly does the trick, its easy, cheap and gets good results if your skilled with filling.. :) you should really fix her up! check my other vids on how mine looked before. :)

  • very nice work, i admire all peoples who want and restore old cars, more peoples like you.

  • @maxvall250 thank you! yes your right, i picked this up from a field filled with sheep! see my other vids! greetingz!!

  • gay

  • @kain161718 if you´ve got something to say i suggest you grow up, maybe you could restore a car better and send me a vid of it? great! thanks for giving me a view.

  • @kain161718 sorry i didnt get it.. well its brave of you to come out of the closet in here, should i call your parents?

  • looking good! and so classic car gets on his/her feet again! :)

    had to mention that little bit slower slideshow would be nice. w123 seems to be alive again.

  • @SirLaQ haha yeah thanks! yeah the slideshow speed adjusts to the length of the song, otherwise it would be no sound in the end of the vid, ill try to fix it better sometime its a really bad programmme..

    its a lovely car, and feels great to drive very easy shifting which is unusual on a car this age (not mercedes obviously), even grandpa gave it compliments for its driving. :)

  • CK - you've done a brilliant job on this mate. Congratulations for ensuring that yet another W123 survives and lives on - instead of being scrapped.

    I know how much time and energy (not to mention money!) that you've put into this project and I hope that you now feel rewarded for your efforts.

    Once again - really well done mate. You are a star!

  • @EssexBoy696969 thank you mate! yes it took a good time and work hours, but must say it was a lot cheaper than i thought! im really satisfied with the result! :) thank you for your kind words, greetings from a very happy Merc owner! :)

  • Nice,great job.

  • @MS22FFF thank you! :)
