All this chatter lately about W124s has had me up at night scanning craigslist. On the way in the office this morning I spotted this sitting out front at the local
MB dealership, so I couldn't resist. Went over to have a look and drive at lunch.
Now I understand what everybody means when they affectionately refer to these as tanks! Clearly this car has been well cared for, but I’m amazed how solid it was for such high mileage. Feels like it was carved from a solid block of metal. Cruised great, but I was kind of underwhelmed about the power or lack thereof (this from an E30 guy of all people). Is that par for the course?
Anyway, I think I might pass on this one. I think I’d rather have a sedan or coupe. The guy mentioned they’re in it for 4.5 I believe.
