Not that I'm aware of.

Climate control? Not mentioned in the ad details. Or have I got it wrong?

that's just the standard heater

 

[manalishi]

Well, it just looks like temperatures written on the two heating dials: 22...26...etc. Not familiar with late W124 controls though.

Definately NO,

How far do you want to travel for one and is it a saloon in particular you want.

I would travel almost any distance. I'd have Silver Saloon's estate if he were selling!

I prefer an estate, but as I'm only entering the Benz market, I'd be happy with a saloon.

As it is, I'm bidding on another (non-merc) car at the moment, so unless a cracking Benz came into view in the next 12 hours, I'm minded to not commit further.

Don't become too downhearted and impatient.........

I take it, this was the first you've been to see...... use it as a learning experience...... so when a really good one pops its head up, you have something to compare it with...

If you dont get sorted let me know, I'm selling a really nice 96 Estate soon (and the service book has real stamps in it )

same heater controls on all of them unless they have aircon (three buttons in the middle) or the digital climate control

Ah - so those numbers on the dials are arbitrary on non-CC cars? Bit silly?

 

[andy_k]

not really, because the heater will try and keep the car at those temperatures. They are controlled by a thermostat and a sensor in the rear view mirror mount (see that little grille) but it's not aircon and it's not climate control unless you are trying to sell the car

Andy - thanks for the info. Hadn't realised there was a thermostat on the W124. I sit corrected (and rather impressed with MB once more)
