I love your Interior so much!!!! how come you need to press the pedel to the floor when starting it? mine just turns on with the turn of the key no throttle needed
@kiarra00 Question are you still driving this car around after 4 years of this video. Is it possible you can sell me some parts from Europe like a Km/h speedometer
@aaronpourazar I drive and have many w123 cars, but this one was used as part scar and scrapped after this video. I don't send parts. Sorry about that...
@mddaredevil you mean service or over haul? a Mercedes diesel engine can go 1 000 000 kms without overhaul easy, only if you can maintain it.. my 240D -83 has only done 336000 kms and is fine as hell!
@tommysbrowncaddy Yes it is a pile, I would much rather be driving my pink cadillac with the 5,7 diesel, it's SOOO reliable. it's only been rebuilt 20 times after 20K miles, that's great!
@tommysbrowncaddy yeah! who wants a car that works!? no everyone should be like americans and drive cars that you spent all too much money on! Tommy is good example of what car to drive! Everyone just burn you money instead!
@tommysbrowncaddy yeah if Tommy the car could give examples of cars to drive then yes. i think its no good though, if its american it would be rubbish you agree yes? yeah i thought so ..
Why do the Europeans have such a facination w/Olds-GM Diesels. Each and every one was junk. Could they be replacing the GM plant w/MBZ 617 motors? Cool post nothing like watching good old fasioned fun.
engine dont sound that bad plus that engine is solid as a rock my old man used to have the 300d version and it went on to some what 380,000 miles and was still running like a watch when he sold it its an incredible machine and a german marvel. Im not angry that you are having fun in 1 im actually impressed that its still running after a beating its had.
Hmm, can you explain why this does not look like a car hyjack or I suppose the key was takin away from you to keep you from doing what your doing now? ROFLMAO Cough cough, you like the smell? LOL Thanks lol for lol sharing lol

@aaronpourazar Had to press the pedal because engine had very little compression after previous owner drove it for hours without coolant....

A dude in Norway tuned one of these with a turbo from a Scania 9 liter... Tried it on the dragstrip and it smoked a BMW M3' and a Mustang Boss...

Wow for having a cracked cylinder head and broken rings it sure sounds good. Freaking Mercedes diesels, the toughest engines ever, anywhere, period.

The key broke inside the lock, that's why we have to use the screwdriver. lol
And if i was going to hijack a car, i would have taken something faster and cooler than an old Mercedes diesel with a broken engine!

It's the idleing speed adjuster, to make the engine idle when it's cold.
