I owned this model since 2009 and it's still working. Now it's operated by my wife & elder son after leaving abroad. In my view it's the best modle among Mercedis cars and was intended to compete with its counterparts. The next generation succeeding it which is the 124 is not stroner than this modle. I hope to own another one in a good condition in my country Sudan.
I so appreciate the close up on the body/paint/clear coat still shiny and ofcourse the engine running in the background, I have a 3L and disconnected the radio just to always listen to the engine, a bit crazy l know but I don't care!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful car... I miss my old 240D & 320D. I drive a nice E350 with all the new electronics. GPS & rear view camera is nice, as is adaptive cruise control & satellite audio. Heated/ventilated seats are nice too. But it just doesn’t feel the same. The simplicity of hand crank windows and manual sunroof were great. The wonderful diesel sound and durability. I always felt like I could drive across the continent and definitely could. Modern technology ruined great old cars.
It's clear that the car has just been repainted. You also point it out by focusing on the trim to make it look it's a good paint job. It is ! But not perfect: there's a tear above the right headlamp and some paint transfer on some of the trims. All in all the car is just a beauty !
True.I think I spotted some blistering along one of the rear horizontal stretches by the trunk.And underneath where the paint-job stops the usual signs of corrosion.However these bodies are so much heavier and better built than any competitors that I have owned much much worse examples that have gone thru 5 years of inspections without failing on rust.
it's literally a perfect W123! and thanks for the very detailed video! you looked every little point that I'd definitely check if I was the one buying this car!
Think so? I spotted signs of rust near where he zoomed but it was a bit too fast away.Also Having owned 4 of these I'd get under with a lamp and check the rear lower wish-bone /shock absorber mounting areas.They collect water, corrode and eventually crack free. Nice car probably re-sprayed and valeted.
@@ianrutherford878 I don't really think that you can tell "rust" for any of those areas because I have a limit of rust acceptance on these cars and I think this is way more under that limit :) And for me, exceptionally perfect cars are for museums, I usually don't chase them cos I like driving these on a daily basis. but yes you're right he doesn't go under it, it's a must. I never had a 123 but owned 2 different w115s.
@@cevim O.K. well I guess I'm questioning 'perfect' Because although I don't even fight rust on my cars,I've seen fully restored, new metal where needed, dipped, rust-protected /galvanised totally stripped body shells, complete repaint inside,outside and underneath.They are 'perfect' for as long as someone can keep them dry, salt -free etc..Not my thing at all. I have a put-together from 2 different years 220D W123D right now.Messy looking but SO reliable.I'd like that 5th gear though. Mine has only 4 and at Swedish highway speeds the motor is a bit too busy and could easily push another gear.
I wish I was you,such a great beautiful car,you should be very proud of it.I had 1981 230 E petrol from new,it must have been a Friday car.A South African made model.We had endless problems,sad but I wish I still had it now.Congratulation and good luck
What a pure diesel motor sound! And pure beauty of Mercedes cars.
Genial. Das Original Diesel Takern aus den 80er Jahren. Wunderbar.
سيارة جميلة وعملية مازالت تستعمل إلى يومنا هذا ، وأكثر ما يعجبني فيها هو محركها ذا الرنة الفريدة التي لم اسمعها في أي محرك غيره.

ربنا يرزقك يارب ، انا قاعد. أفتش في وحدة نظيفة دعواتك يارب نلقا وحدة مريحة في بلدنا دي يارب
When you see how strong these Mercedes Benz are, body wise , engine wise, 5hese cars are indestructible, easier to fix than the new cars.
and also look better than them
Mercedes je zakon ....obozavam ove stare modele .
Der beste Wagen, den Daimler-Benz jemals gebaut hat. Und das Karosseriedesign einfach zeitlos.
I remember the beautiful days with my friend when we were go by his beautiful white Mercedes 230 in Baghdad,
Одно из лучших творений человека!!!!!
Très belle voiture. Absolument indestructible.
Love the look the color and the sound

So true!
SUPER
Fantastic. Really beautiful. I hope to get one like this model w123
Se bruit du moteur c eSt toute ma jeunesse c etais le temp ou les Mercedes se fabriquais en allemagne.
Только приятные воспоминания из детства я такой на 2 колеса ставил очечь хорошая машина была.
اجمل سيارة في العالم هي ماركة مرسيدس امتلكت منها 190 و c220 والله افضل سيارة بسافر بها على مسافات طويلة عمرها ماوقفت باي عطل ماشاء الله
Semplicemente perfetta 👍👍👍
المرسيدس جميله في كل موديلاتها
وخصوصا موديلات السبعينات والثمانينات
لايضاهيها جمال ابدا
@صنع في المنزل اين اجد لها ادوات

روعه روعه العقل الالماني مبدع
Witam. Miałem mesia ,niesamowite wrażenie jazdy nim ,cóż po29latach poszedł na złom ,czas pozostał po nim smutny.Boleje po nim
बहुत ही प्यारी गाड़ी है काश हमारे भारत देश में यह गाड़ी मिलती है
La meilleur voiture du monde la Mercedes 240d une legende
Exactement
Je pense que vous connaissez pas d'autres marques il y en a mieux mais plus chére
@@ahmesouechen6659 c'est sûr Ahmes, mais cette Mercedes est une légende
I love the 240D the best car i ever had. i dont think Mercedes has any other model better than 240D.
But sure, 240 D is a masterpiece! Like most Mercedes models it outruns any other car brand in comfort, safety, quality, reliability, durability.
انها الالمان ياحبيبي .يريدون قتلها ولكن لا تموت .. جيل الى جيل
Najbolja serija ikad napravljena , posedujem 2 spremna za restauraciju licno sredjujem 1 za svoju dusu drugi za prodaju
Bravo Mladene.
My God very nice clean w 123
من عشاق هذه السيارة وإن شاء الله سأستشريها
كم موديلها ؟!
ماشاء الله اني مو أرغب وإنما اعشقه عشق خاصتا هذا النوع وا 250 يممم

I love the 280e headlights my friend!
N1 des voiture mondial mercedes 240 D.
I love those germans car greetings from algeria
انا اعشق هذة السيارات كثيرا واعشق المانيا.
Ich kann ihn förmlich riechen.... Tolles Auto
لعل ألمانيا ندمت لصناعتها مثل هذا النوع الذي لايموت. لحد الآن موديلات السبعينات تستعمل للنقل العمومي بالمغرب ومازالت مريحة
في لبنان تجد في الكيلو متر المربع الواحد أكثر من عشرين سيارة من هذا النوع...و تستعمل ايضا"للنقل
Je savais que ca vous plairait les gars..
La fabrication automobiles dans le monde suit la tendance et l'innovation si Mercedes restait sur ce modèle ça sera la faillite totale.
يعجبني صوت المحرك و كأنك تسمع في صوت جرار، هاذ الموديل يمكن لك تحرث به الارض و ما تخاف
Best cars ever built!!!! And I mean ever!
Die schönsten Autos die Mercedes Benz je gebaut hat!
Ascot Grey, a common color back then. If this car is all original, it's a nice running example for sure....
Best Mercedes ever😄
سلام الله عليكم، إنها تحفة من تحف هذا الزمان، ما شاء الله.
Ein Herrschaflicher Wagen 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nice fast and clean 🤔
Вот..это был настоящий немецкий автомобиль,,вечный))
С дизельным мотором он не ехал но и не расходывал😊
Der W 123 und der W126 waren die letzten richtigen Mercedes .
Iam only Advocate having the above model and every time I will drive I feel King...It's adds prestige in society
Ich liebe Mercedes Benz
Incredibile , bellissima!
Mi piace molto, la mia macchina preferita
Sehr schön 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤

Beautiful looking car. I just love the sound of the motor
Lovemore Ntete
WHY I LIKE just this motor sound idk
Vozila ga doktorka samo do banke ! Nevin kao moja baba PERSA ! Farban i prefarban "samo" jednom u svakoj deceniji !!!
Ciao bella
Kiedyś to były samochody z duszą. Nie to co teraz.
На нем нельзя ездить. Он должен стоять в хорошем чистом светлом гараже. Легенда
Луче в салоне перед роялом
I like that sound.... 😍🤪🙂👍👏
Sounds way better than modern diesel engine waaauww that sound is like music.
The best of Mercedes
Hastasıyım. Bende 78 i var. Harika arabalar..
هذه اروعه سيارة في العالم وفي التاريخ من لم يجربها فهو لم يعرف طعم سياقة السيارة الدبابة
سيارة مقاتلة بمعنى الكلمة
Najbolji auto , odlican primerak lepo ocuvan .
Mercedes je broj 1 bio i ostao auto koje traje
Imam ga i ja sa 5 brzina ali nema klimu. Metalik sivi.
Дас Ист Фантастики!

Nothing like todays plastic cars 😁😀
Try the same with BMW 520d 530d or Audi A6 TDI 😂😂😂

يعجبني صوت المحرك و قفلةالباب
J'ai adoré ce bruit de moteur
Volio bi takav mercedes tako su dobri
Ja ga imam, ali moj nema klimu. Također motor 240D, 5 brzina.
The first Mercedes Benz i drove when i get my driving license 30 years ago.
This is my dream's car
Beste Motoren , beste Autos jemals Mercrdes gebaut hat .
Ich habe so ein Auto in Olivengrün gehabt . Einfach genial 👌👌👌👌
