W124 E200 M111/940 manual
Hi all I am a new member and would like to find out if in the UK all the w124 models are being shipped to Nigeria for parts, here in Ireland we find it hard to get parts they all come from the UK, its sad to see such a fast decline here, I have a soft spot for the W124 and hate to think in a year or two they will be gone from Ireland , that is apart from some small number of collectors, I source all my parts in the UK, the w124 in Ireland is an endangered species , I can only hope the UK will continue to be able to supply parts, i am trying to source some used special tools for the w124 such as the bushing tool for the diff , and a spring compressor, if any one has these tools please let me know , can i say its great to find this club thanks to all
 
Yes, a lot get stolen too to be shipped abroad.

You could be right, I had a Nissan Primera for 11 years with just over 50,000 miles and has been exported to Kenya.
 
Yes , only a couple of years ago the breakers yards were full of W201/W124/W126 . Now , sadly , they are few and far between .

A recent trawl round my local yards revealed only one C126 and one S124 :(
 
Plenty of w124 on GSView - Coupes in highest numbers , followed by estate and then saloon (yes i am keeping tabs)
