Mercs of that era including the W123 series were the best ever made. Built to last longer than their owners.

Couldn't believe that 33 year old 3.0 300E accelerate that quick from 20 klms. Responds better accelerating than younger cars.

Den gleichen 300e Automatik nur in schwarz hatte ich damals mit 18 als ersten Wagen. Hab den von meinem Opa bekommen, damals hatte er schon 320 tausend auf der Uhr. Der tüv hat uns getrennt, als der Benziner 610.000 km gelaufen hat. Bereue bis heute, dass ich ihn verkauft habe

The speedo is like "c'mon C'MON! Lets go!" at the start.

That's a lovely 6 cylinder sound right there. Not too brash and not too muddy, just the right scream coming from it.

When Mercedes was really "the best or nothing"

0 talking , just riding! This is it!

A car designed in the beginning of 1980's cruising comfortably at 200 kilometers per hour? The Best or Nothing

The W124 is increasingly proving to be among the best cars MB ever built. One of my friends has an '88 300E manual with over 600k kms on the clock. My '92 230E is still going strong at 218k kms.

Das schönste Brett, welches man vorm Kopf haben kann, das klassische Armaturenbrett von Mercedes Benz, vom 200 D Taxi bis zum Tourer wie hier immer der gleiche, übersichtliche Aufbau. In meinen Augen industrielle Kunst.

My father’s last car was a 1990 300 E in dark green metallic with tan interior. We had to give it away after his much too early death in 1993. Your video is a reminder of this wonderful car (and our sad familiar loss…) 😢 Thank you

A Beautiful REAL Mercedes !!! I know of one with 400K miles and still strong

Супер вообще!!!! Класс!! Вот это автомобиль созданный инженерами,а не маркетологами.

I remember the mid 1980’s adverts for the W126 series here in Australia around surviving a crash. Look it up on YT…the MB slogan at that time was ‘Engineered like no other car…’ Not sure I’d say that applies to the Mercedes Benz of today. Back then, owning a Benz was something special, a privilege to be earned. If you saw one, it was exciting, as they weren’t everywhere. Now, here at least where I am, almost every man and his dog has one! Even I’ve got a C124 300CE coupe sitting in my back yard!

Why can’t interiors and fascia’s be as clean, unfussy and elegant nowadays! BMW E12, E28, E32 and E34 and Mercedes W124 and W126 had such lovely interiors!

I love this model, W124. FOREVER CAR, MADE IN GERMANY. QUALITY 10\10. SAFETY 10\10. Who agree with me, like. And take care of yourself's, people. Take care of this cars. It is not too much in the present days

124 это легендарный автомобиль. Обожаю его, за его комфорт и качество.

The M103 is one of the best engine Mercedes ever produce. It's extremely reliable

I really love old Mercedes of this era. Just cruising along with no fuss whatsoever. For an old inline 6 this thing gets up to speed so quickly!

This is amazing. I couldn't believe how quiet and relived the cruise is at those speeds.

Thank you for taking me back down memory lane. I had a 1987 W124 300E in exactly this color, Smoke Silver, but with Tan MB-tex interior. I loved this car so much. Back in 1987, it was the very best in this class, bar none. Even better than the 1986 BMW 535i I also owned at the same time. Now 33 years later, watching your video, I could almost feel like I was driving my old 300E again! Awesome video of an awesome car!

Damn is it just me or was that some unexpectedly fast acceleration?

Habe ich mir 2005 gekauft, das war eines meiner zuverlässigsten und besten Autos, hatte 188 PS.

Мерс 👍🏽 просто летит Коробка 88 года листает передачи лучше чем я механику со стажем в 15 лет.

soo nice, a absolute lovely car. keep them alive

Sene olmuş 2021 biz halen bu muhteşem w124'lere binmeye devam ediyoruz.

Fantastisches Video! Danke dafür. Hatte einen 300E, Bj 1985. Das war 2006 und selbst heute, 10 Autos später, gehört er zu meinen top 3. Unfassbar gutes Auto.

Sound of the engine is so pleasant. It is the only car i have driven for no reason. Modern cars have no soul.

Wie viele emotionen uns durch diese Autos verbinden ist unglaublich

This reminds me so much of a 1997 W202 C36 AMG I once had, I guess the W124 was where it all started for modern Mercs...Great video !

Love the M103 , I have a 300SE with M103 and it's so adorable engine

Парень можно оккуратно открывать дверь?! Это старые машины заслужили уважения.

The Porsche at 2:21 is like : WTF is goin on

WOW!!! This car is a classic and stylish for its time, which with the interior is unlikely to pass soon. After a few decades, we will only remember such cars and watch videos on the sofa, while telling nostalgic stories about them to our children!

Mijn witte 300E uit 87 waar ik helaas een zwaar ongeluk mee heb gehad, was de fijnste auto die ik ooit gehad heb.

Miałem takiego. Kombi i już z szeroką listwa. 5 biegów w manuału. 1990r. Wersja sportline. Był świetny.

Just bought 1 last week,best classic car

I have the same model but 1986 and with double the km then yours but still drives like a dream. Never going to sell it.

35 years old and still incredible smooth and fast.

اجمل سيار في عالم كل مرسيدس فقط لا غير انها قوي جدا

Ich hatte den selben Motor aber als Coupe 300ce. Super Auto zuverlässiger Motor, ein Auto für Genießer. Das war eine geile Zeit.

Fantastic, I have had a CE 300, unforgettable.

Stability at high speeds,w124,300E its just amazing

3:15 The kickdowwn at high speed a dream. Great car from great time.

Old models in Mercedes Benz are always the best ,mine is 1990 model but I really enjoy it

Love these classic classy boxy Mercedes

Best Mercedes era. 🇩🇪

This is the car that made me a Benz fan😍. It’s almost weird to think that it was considered a luxury car back then(heck my mom and dad drove this thing everywhere). The W124 had such a hard edge to it, it seems like more of an enthusiast car.

M103 single cam, KE fuel sistem,long live engine....,.👍🔥

Beautiful! Phenomenal how it sounds and goes at this age.

Was my First car got it from my grandfather. Loved her ❤️

Perfect old car!

The Perfect video. Thank you for this.

Isso é qualidade construtiva. 33 anos de pista e esse rodar maravilhoso.

I had when I was 18 as my first car a 1989 300E , I still remember that car was pretty fast , enjoyable driving and extreme engineered vehicle. I regret selling it.

Stable as rock Speed as rocket Beautiful as W124 ❤

Wow that shifts big time, amazing.

LOVE THIS MACHINE

THE SOUND SMOOTH...AND THE LOOK ELEGANT... WOW

these cars love high speed high way blasts, the 4th gear acceleration is impressive for a car with this little power.

My father had a 300E and later a 300CE. After more than 30 years I still like the design of the dashboard and the instrument panel. But the steering wheel could have been smaller.

Whoa it pulls beautifully. Prima!

That's my car. Mine is an '87 300E. These videos always make me hold my breath.

Bergisches Land :), love the landscapes.

Old Merc's are something else. Truly the best!

This is why i love these cars

Mein 2. Auto! Meiner war aber ein Schalter.... Vielen Dank, für die Zeitreise❤

amazing, thanks for the video

this car was/is such a smooth glider, realy a special behavin ! one of my best cars I driven - twice the back in time !! 😘🥰👍🏁🤞🍀

That door shut sound!

циферблаты здорово вмонтировал в видео!

Mega Video. Dankeschön dafür. Kein Gerede und keine Musik. Mein Vater hatte einen 300 E im Jahr 1987. Der Wagen im Video läuft sauber 😊.

Loved my '86 300e and still driving my '94 e420 (V8 w/over 309k mi)...mostly pampered with occassional bat out of hell driving...tee hee hee.. Key to keeping these cars in pristine shape, a great mechanic and detailer.

That interior color is so sick

Love your videos! Please do a W210 E320 V6 kombi!!

Owned two 1987 W 124s over the years, and parts got to be an issue. Best Mercedes made, and best car in the world, at the time. Quick up to 60 for its time, but took a long time to get to 135, but had the best brakes. Only 22 MPG.

Above 5000 rpm this engine starts sounding like music... sooo delicious.

Yeah it was my first W124 300E automatic 180 HP grey sedan from the 1986 with the M103E30 12V this engine is hard like stone if you care about him Changes from 8000km to max. 10000km oil,plug spark,filters itc.

Legendary car! One of the best ever made!

Looks like this 300E is in really good shape. The engine makes good power and the transmission shifts quickly.

I really enjoy your driving, I think you have a long experience, good job

Not even a shudder. Damn beautiful car🤘

Good old mercedes, best in the world back in time

классный аппарат! кайфовый! привет из сибири! тоже хочу купить такой! очень нравиться!

Damn this thing shifts smoother than my E55!

My grandpa has the exact same one but without a turbo. It has 114 HP and over 600.000 km and its very good still.

One of the man reasons why I like w124 series is, very tough body.

цены нет такому автомобилю👍👍👍

Coś pięknego

Легендарная Машина ❗ Это факт ❗❗❗

Viva mercedes benz el mejor coche del mundo viva mercedes ❤❤❤❤

What a smooth ride, no modern merc comes close to these old barges

So old and still so quick and quiet. This is build like a tank.

The old girl got power.. 👍👍👍

احسن سيار في عالم كل مرسيدس

This is my dream car

Мой любимый 124 кузов

I cannot believe how smooth that car is. Most cars I've driven from the 1995-2005 era are not nearly this smooth, even though they are much younger.

This gen E-class is just yummy

Extremely rare to see pre 2000s mercedes in my country without it falling apart from rust. Tbh that is all pre 2000s cars almost. Volvos and Saabs are usually in best condition from that time period here. Gotta love these late 80s and early 90s cars though, so simple and yet so reliable (as long as the rust has been kept in check).
