My 1980 Mercedes Benz 300SD

A wonderful chapter in the history of the automobile. My personal delight, a 1980 W116. A car I hope will run for ever, just like the Koschel's Mercedes. I recently got my first High Mileage award, and hope to get the remaining awards as well. Being a very satisfied fourth time Mercedes owner, I must say its true- Once youve followed the star, you never go back.

@cyrusthevrus this beauty's predecessor was actually a 123. A true work horse. Its in a few of my other videos.

Nice W116 an underrated Mercedes of the era, overshadowed by the W123.

looks like she was low on fuel.....I wish my fiel gauge worked right...

@DamnStraightM35A2 Yeah, well once it gets to 1/4 tank, sometimes the light come on sometimes not, I just go ahead and fill up again. Beautiful cars though.
