Hi guys, I've been trying to get the build date on my 1983 230CE - I am sure it is Dec 1982, which would render it tax free this year, but I cna't find the info out anywhere. I've tried all the usual VIN Decoders but nothing. Any ideas? WDB12324322017535 Thanks in advance for any assistace...

Hi, After fitting some larger modern classic alloys to my 230CE, I have decided I love them, and thus to put up the original 14" Steelies with new Bridgestone 195/70/14 and some 15" Rials with older Fulda 205/55/15 on them. Older wheels need a scrub up, rials wre sandblasted and undercoated...

Hi guys, Bit of a quandry, issue here. I have some alloy wheels I bought (Calibre Vintage) which someone showed me fitted on their 230CE. Stupidly, I then went and bought some. Now whilst the rears fit fine, the fronts do not go over the stub that protides from the front axle hub. So I was...

I took my footrest off to perform some welding and other stuff. It was boxed, put in the garage and we've subsequently moved, with half of our stuff in a 40' container, and the rest in boxes in the garage. I wouldn't know where to start looking, being honest. It was put in the box of, stuff...

Hi, It seems my respray man has lost my rear bumper brackets. Has anyone any go to stores for such a thing; spent an hour trying this morning to no avail.

As above, assorted W123 (230CE) parts for sale before they get whooshed up by my wife. Offers.

Looking for chromed wheel bolts to fit the RIAL alloys I bought from the forum. Have the originals, but they are black and we had them powder coated in chromium. Also looking for some quality centre caps, not the rubbish off ebay. Any idea of some online places, or any in the West Country?

Underneath the radiator is a cowling, support for the front wings. I can't seem to find the part number. I have the upper front cowling, that's being replaced, it's the lower part that I can't seem to find. Any idea's or pointers? Bit of a PITA as it's the last piece of the puzzle to get it...

I am looking at sprucing up the lighting, as I live rurally and the stock bulbs, lights don't really come to much muster. Are there any non CANBUS kits anyone would recommend, or alternatives? Also, for the interior lighting too. Thanks Paul

I have a couple of wings, radiator, horse hair seats and seat frames, and various other items of trim for sale. Prop shaft, some other bits and bobs; ask and I'll check if I have them.

OK, having a but of time to myself, I removed the carpets, seats and trim around the front passenger bulkhead, ready for the sides to be repaired and found a lot of rust in the passenger bulkhead area. I haven't checked the drivers side yet, but I am going to imagine the worst. Questions...

I purchased some trim items off a person who has just sold his 230CE (C123). He asked if I wanted to buy 'a few other parts too', which Is aid yes. As a result, I have a lot of spare parts for one, including trim and seats, etc, etc. If you are looking for anything, and get stuck, pop me a PM...

230CE owner. I’ve noticed that the car luches in gear. Stationary, the idle is fine but once you’re in gear, idle seems to be higher, so moving from N to D it kind of lurches, even with the brake on. But, in N, the idle is fine. Moving from P to D or P to R, R to D, it lurches. Can’t work...

I've had the car a day now, and the smell of mustiness is overpowering. Given it's spent the last 4 months in a garage, I can see how and why and the interior did get wet. ANyone got any ideas of how to remove it? I have bought some upholstery shampoo and carpet cleaner, and I am hoping this...

Hi, thought it nice to introduce myself; Just purchased an 83 230CE, a car I have lusted after since a young adult. Looking forward to seeing what info you guys can give me, and how I cana help too. Cheers Paul
