Hi
I'm thinking of buying a w124 series E class estate as a family car, for low mileages ie 8k a yr or so.
Have been told that W124s are indestructable with good MBFSH and are the last of the really well made cars. Would very much appreciate some advice from you experts:
What should I look out for on them ?
What is "high mileage" for a E200 or E220 ?
What are the servicing costs like ?
Are the Autos reliable ?
Any ideas on actual fuel consumtion for the above ?
Have seen lots in the £4-6k range with 70-140k miles, 93-96 models - does extra 2 yrs older matter if you are getting say 25k less miles ?
Many thanks
Peter
