Any advice would be greatly appreciated ! I'm learning as I go :)

Hi there I'm looking to put a new engine into my W115 I won't be carrying out the work myself so there will be a few mechanics that I know reading this thread to see what your suggestions are :)

Greetings Fellow Stroke Eights...
I am busily reducing a W114 coupe down to the molecular level in order to have a stock of parts to keep my W114 250 CE on the road for a number of years. This "scrapper" came with a rebuilt , 2 litre diesel engine, bits from a 240D, Chrome and bits from...
Hi looking to buy a body shell or car w115 shape as mine has rusted through. I have all other parts so as long as the shell is good I'm interested in buying.

Looks like it needs some work. But it is a right hand drive car with AC, which is v. rare.
If it were a diesel, I'd probably invest in it.
...has not gone well. 6 months later and no luck.
Has anyone seen a Right hand drive /8 Diesel with an AC in Europe? I'm thinking about casting a wider net and including petrol motors as well...but the thought of dealing with a carb doesn't sit well.
Any suggestions always welcome. Cheers!
I've just come across an almost pristine example of what I think is not exactly an attractive car. Low miles, 158 white/gray, RHD.
However, I've never had one and I do like old fashioned simplicity.
If I buy it in the hope that it grows on me and it does, fine, but if I start to look upon it...
Hi There,

Any leads or advice on these parts is also more than welcome!
I have a bit of a predicament with my newly found 200D.
So I looked everywhere I can think of, looked thru all the usual PDFs online and on the little maintenance manual that comes on a CD, etc etc. I can't find anywhere that tells you when do do maintenance tasks.
Every source I saw so...
Hey everybody.
I remember I used to be on this forum quiet a lot a while ago when I was messing with 126s and everybody seemed friendly and knowledgeable so I figured I would try you guys with this question.
I wasn't sure which section to post it in so I figured General is probably as...
Greetings!
I'm looking for a W115 /8 300D with A/C. Must be a rust free, pristine example. I will have the car examined by my MB specialist prior to purchase so the owner must be okay with this.
I will pay a 5% of the agreed upon final agreed upon value as a finders fee once complete...

Question for you boys, basically my car front doors wouldn't lock or unlock with the key so I bought new handles with keys. Went to change them but when I pulled the old handles off, a small metal bracket fell down into the door and now I don't know how to get it all to fit again?
