They have a "Metrocab" taxi in Glasogw Transport museum, where after 1 MILLION miles, (1,6mill km) Ford asked if they could have the engine back (3.0L from memory) as they wanted to see what they had done so right . . . owner said NO THANKS to offer of a brand new engine. . . in that million miles it never had a breakdown, only regular servicing.
@drreik Mercedes-Benz W123 & W124 models used to have the best diesel engines (1M km was almost regular!) and after these models, Mercede resigned its policy of doing such durable cars (to be in line with new marketing trends of changing for newer & newer models). Nowodays instead of paying for good goods - one pays for marketing costs..
Apart from a newer audi, I keep and old 25-year-old MB W124 TE with 2.3 gas engine - I simply don't want to sell it because it's a "cult car" :) Also in Germany there is a lot of such second-cars..people keep them for sentiment and every day wear & tear other cars..
@prycho or because i have finish economics department marketing . the reason why they don't make the same like this is simple .
one day they will come to our ''official service'' to pay money .
my friend who work at a company engine for VW more new is the car . more part in engine are plastic than older times was pure iron . they brake at specific km . this is configured from many engineers out there who are interdependent from big manufactured car.
my 240d has 100% comperession in -5c weather all i have to do is turn the iddle adjust up high, cycle my glow plugs 1 time and the engine turns over with out any use of the gas pedel any thing below that it hesitates a bit but wont stall or any thing
455.000 Km so far, with no problems. Engine has never been taken apart! Compression and emissions still in top condition. Top speed and fuel consumption is the same as it was brand new. (We're 1st owners ever since. The trick is the regular service with OE parts.)
Thank you Rover factory in Swindon! :) And thank you Japanese engineer mates!
1.2million km that's amazing! how many of those miles have you done? Here in the UK I'm impressed when I get into a VW or Toyota minicab/taxi that's done 250,000 miles = 400,000km. Is this car still going?
@mrcoogs86 It wasn't my car, I was just fixing it for some people I know. It's not on the road today, they choose to scrap it because of many problems with rust, suspension, overheating etc. But the engine still ran ok. Such a shame.
@kscorer2 Then again mini can barely do 500.000km ;) I have W123 300d merch that has driven little over 700.000 and then i needed to open the engine for the 1st time ever (Car has full service history since it had 3 owner's before me) Yes mini has more style but is it any better???No. Mini goes faster than merch?? Well certainly its faster than any of the older merch's but go agains't like SL65 etc that are pulling over 500hp ;)
@kiarra00 yes, good diesel engines can do that. Here in Germany there is an old Diesel Taxi from the 1930s that still runs after over 1 million kilometers. I doubt my Toyota will run that long :-D
@kiarra00 im not gonna put that much on it , just because you think i have somethin to prove ! im lucky enough that i found a E36 with a low milage , it had 62000 Km when i bought it 6 years ago , it now has 111000 , i use during the week ends only.. it's an authentic car that i love to drive, it's one of those last bmw's that got some real soul in it... my car is in a perfect conditions as well as the engine ! i just can't stand those tractor sound that any diesel car makes !
@kiarra00 I don't know under witch stone you came from butt these cars can really make it this far without replacing engine or transmission or even replacing the headgasket.
@sennahoj23 To be honest I think BMW is a good car, but head gasket is a known problem and I have seen many with broken head gasket even with low miles and not overheated, but the actual engine and trans are good, but it can't compare to and old Mercedes diesel like this one, they are indestructible
ahhh the good ol mercs. We had a w124 e220t, bought it new in 1994 (the last models to be made) and kept it until 2010 with only 284k km. Never had a single problem in its life. Even tought the last 4 years it was in Finland where cars age triple the speed and has to deal with weather being -20 - -30 celsius even in Helsinki. All mercs after this have shudy build quality and dont seem to have the same soul. Luckily we didnt purschase the E350cdi this year, but the A7 quattro.
1.2 million ks is roughly 650,000 miles. Ave for a taxi .What makes Mercedes different is the fact they will do this mileage without major breakdowns.
@10yroldcarlover I have one 2.5TD W124 it has nearly 290.000km maintenance is done at Mercedes, works well but it was opened once @ 210.000km and now needs another fix... It's for sure a wonderfull machine to loose oil from every corner :D
I can say they are overrated, they last long, but they aren't such a marvel.
I drive one and I can say Mercedes is just as good as another brand. Sure they are safe and fun but we pay (and very well) that safety and fun...
they built cars to last until it dawned on them that they don't earn much money from it and so it is how it is now. the customer shall buy short-term running crap to fund the most important: return-on-investment. You can choose any company. my father never had problems with those old ones. but today, i mean, 3000 euros to replace a control device for the anti blocking system in an audi a6... are they nuts? now my father drives skoda, its the cheapest way to drive volkswagen spare parts :D
i have one just like this a w123 300TD 5cyl diesel is has 593.672km on the meter sounds a litte better..but not that much diffence these W123 were the last mercedes build the old way later models stil have the good engines but rusted a bit faster..just my opinion
@skidpiggy yep maybe not in america or canada but go to europe and the average mercedes has 500,000km.. the reliability bullshit you hear from honda and toyota is only in north america. If you want a reliable car in europe its a mercedes. They are used as taxis so they obviously are reliable.
@skidpiggy yeah their engines last long.. i work at a body/mechanic shop so i can see what comes in and stuff.. most jap cars are horrible for rusting.. nissans are the worst... we get the recalls from nissan and fix the rust issues on certain models.... but yea europe most people drive diesel too.. its a whole different world there.

@sranjesuper Yep mercedes is reliable , my brother had a 220D from '72 with 600.000km on it . But the new mercedeses from today with CDI engine's are not that reliable anymore ... My father had a mercedes from the ninetees and after 120.000Km the high pressure pump was giving up . Now that's an expensive joke .
You obviously do not know your Mercedes-Benz's well [specifically the W124 and W123 chassis']. These vehicles, especially the OM-engines/diesel engines, were built to last a LONG time, way BEYOND 1,000,000 km or even 1,000,000 miles. The W124 and W123 diesel taxis often have high mileage because they are driven far on a daily basis.
@skidpiggy If you live in a city, 1 000 000 kms may sound like a lot, but if you live in the country - those kms tick away much faster than you like them to. Here in Värmland, Sweden the distances are vast so vehicles with a million kilometers on the "clock", are not unheard of here. Taxi cars run around the clock all year, so they get to the million kilometer mark rather quickly. It normally takes 3 - 4 years.
just get the injectors and glow plugs rebuilt and fix that power steering pump.... either add fluid or tighten the belt.. and get a new air filter and do oil changes often and that car will go for another mill
@yusufmpower Don't call me idiot, you're the idiot! The car has 1,2 million KM, not miles! Of course I don't kill the engine by giving some gas, it's a mercedes! And by the way, the only word you knew how to type was idiot, that's probably because you are an idiot!
@kiarra00 1.2 miljon km , en you giff with cold engine, gasss , that is not good , 1.2 miljon km has the engine, en you giff cold engine gass , that is not good , for the engine
@yusufmpower The high milage doesen't matter! an engine can be just as worn after 200 000KM. I know that it's not good to rev a diesel right after starting it, but it had been running normal for some time before I did it, so the water and oil had some temperature, so what I did didn't do any damage, I know what i'm doing, I'am a car mechanic!
@XFace13 First of all: don't call me an idiot, it's very childish! And second: "by giving it gas you will kill it, it's a diesel". Have you ever seen a car??? It's not hard at all for a diesel engine to run at high rpm, as long as you don't rev it max for long periods. These OM617 engines can be revved to 5200 rpm, I was only doing half of that in this video, not hard at all!!, it's actually harder for them to run at idle, because they don't run as smooth then!
@xxpontiac00xx Thats the sound of a cold diesel that probably could use an injector cleaning/servicing. When injectors get dirty on some diesels, they make the engine sound like they are knocking.

@skidpiggy yeah their engines last long.. i work at a body/mechanic shop so i can see what comes in and stuff.. most jap cars are horrible for rusting.. nissans are the worst... we get the recalls from nissan and fix the rust issues on certain models.... but yea europe most people drive diesel too.. its a whole different world there.

@sranjesuper Yep mercedes is reliable , my brother had a 220D from '72 with 600.000km on it . But the new mercedeses from today with CDI engine's are not that reliable anymore ... My father had a mercedes from the ninetees and after 120.000Km the high pressure pump was giving up . Now that's an expensive joke .

@skidpiggy
You obviously do not know your Mercedes-Benz's well [specifically the W124 and W123 chassis']. These vehicles, especially the OM-engines/diesel engines, were built to last a LONG time, way BEYOND 1,000,000 km or even 1,000,000 miles. The W124 and W123 diesel taxis often have high mileage because they are driven far on a daily basis.

@skidpiggy If you live in a city, 1 000 000 kms may sound like a lot, but if you live in the country - those kms tick away much faster than you like them to. Here in Värmland, Sweden the distances are vast so vehicles with a million kilometers on the "clock", are not unheard of here. Taxi cars run around the clock all year, so they get to the million kilometer mark rather quickly. It normally takes 3 - 4 years.

There are old mercs that have 2 million kilometers on it.
those old series are very reliable and alsmost undistructable

just get the injectors and glow plugs rebuilt and fix that power steering pump.... either add fluid or tighten the belt.. and get a new air filter and do oil changes often and that car will go for another mill

@yusufmpower Don't call me idiot, you're the idiot! The car has 1,2 million KM, not miles! Of course I don't kill the engine by giving some gas, it's a mercedes! And by the way, the only word you knew how to type was idiot, that's probably because you are an idiot!

@yusufmpower The high milage doesen't matter! an engine can be just as worn after 200 000KM. I know that it's not good to rev a diesel right after starting it, but it had been running normal for some time before I did it, so the water and oil had some temperature, so what I did didn't do any damage, I know what i'm doing, I'am a car mechanic!

@kiarra00 By giving it gas you will kill it, it's a diesel... Idiot

@XFace13 First of all: don't call me an idiot, it's very childish! And second: "by giving it gas you will kill it, it's a diesel". Have you ever seen a car??? It's not hard at all for a diesel engine to run at high rpm, as long as you don't rev it max for long periods. These OM617 engines can be revved to 5200 rpm, I was only doing half of that in this video, not hard at all!!, it's actually harder for them to run at idle, because they don't run as smooth then!

on tired engines, i find bumping up the idle speed by like 200rpm helps them stay a little more smooth.

@xxpontiac00xx Thats the sound of a cold diesel that probably could use an injector cleaning/servicing. When injectors get dirty on some diesels, they make the engine sound like they are knocking.
