Interesting how proud you are of a 30+yr old car. My dad sold it way back in the early 80s. It was a red 200D....replaced with a 60 HP tin can hatch. Oh it was petrol! lol...

@jfv65 i will! :) sure they are the most reliable cars! everything works on it except the brakes and few more mechanicall details needs fixing, but fully driveble! i have a couple vids of ´´rescueing´´ it from where it sat. will be putting up more as time goes :)
thanks for your comment!

@coolakiIlen007 maintain it well and it will give you twice that and more! Take it from an ex W123 taxi driver.

The engineers at Mercedes were told to make the best car ever. After, they added 10% to the production costs to get a profit out of it.
Get your hands on a decent one, get rust protection, and you have a car for life.

@apachioara thats amazing! i just bought my first car which is a -83 Mercedes w123 240D! it has run 335000kms and had sat outside for 3 years but fired up in 1 second with new battery! i payed around $70 xD hoping to have it for a long time..

i also drive a 200d with 1,274,000 km but it is getting more difficult to start it every day use a 100ah battery i think it,s surrendering after 33 yr

I have red one just like these but 200D. It's in my family since 1980 but "born" 1977. as I am! It passed 200000 km, nothing! I plan to keep that care because when I drive that care I drive all my nice memories, first girls and kisses (my wife doesn't know about that) ;-), one war we survived running away across forests and bad roads. Now we are free and mercedes is still with us, and now I'm the owner!
Best regards to all mercedes owners and those who just love that care!
