Hi All,
Due to a change in job and not having to travel as far I'm looking to buy a W124 - probably a E280 / 300E / E320.
Do you think it's realistic for me to use of one these as a daily driver, I will be doing about 240 miles a week, mainly on A roads and motorways.
Im fairly competent home mechanic so quite happy doing the usual serviceable things.
So, what sort of things do I need to look out for when buying a W124? Other than front wings, where do they rust?
Are there many mechanical / electrical issues I need to look out for?
And finally, what sort of fuel consumption should I expect?
Thanks
Rob
