1973 Mercedes w114 / w115 types 200 - 230.4 - 230.6

In September 1973, the whole 114/115 series underwent extensive model revision; countless details, which had been introduced into the SL and SLC Types respectively, and also in the S-Class now were incorporated into the models of the less prestigious product line, improving the general safety concept. To name but a few: exterior rear mirrors, which could be adjusted from inside the car, dirt repelling decorative trims at the A-pillars, which kept the side windows clean even in poor weather, profiled, soil-repellent taillights as well as a roof rail at the rear window. The four-spoke security steering wheel, which was a familiar feature of product lines 107 and 116, had been integrated into serial production of the "Stroke Eight" types half a year prior to model revision. From March 1973, head rests and automatic safety belts became part of the serial equipment of 114/115 series models. As part of the facelift carried out in August 1973 two new 4-cylinder engines were introduced; the 240 D was now the top Diesel model and the 230.4 replaced the 220. The suffix Ř" in the designation of the new 230 was necessary to avoid confusion with the original 230 model with a 6-cylinder engine, which was still available as the 230.6.

Great car to see, in the 60s and 70s they had much cooler models than now.

[@matador521]

I always liked these, very crisp and clean styling. Not to be compared to the sheer beauty of the late 60s models, of course!

[@wolfgangscheuer1611]

I had a 1972 model 200 gas engine 4 speed standard, big sunroof, 4 wheel disc brakes, Bilstein gas shocks, white with red interior - European headlights, so far advanced over NA cars. Was a great running and handling car. Was not a 1/4 mile drag race performer but could run all day and all night flawlessly at highway speeds over any kind of roads!!

Wunderschöne Autos! Und der Geist der Siebzigerjahre 😆😆

[@squid667]

My parents used to have a white 200 from 1968 when I was a little kid. It had a blue interior and red leather patches with a white Mercedes star between the headlights and the grille. I don't remember it but I have seen pictures. There is also pictures of this car towing my uncle's black hot rodded 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 after one of it's frequent breakdowns. The car used to belong to my grandad who bought it some time around the mid 1970s. And my mom started driving it in 1982 when he bought a W123. The 200 had no steering servo, hardly any accessories, and it was quite slow. But it was solid as a mountain.

[@allwinds3786]

I remember those original equipment tires with the ribs on the sidewalls!

[@TheMuston]

At the time you knew why you had to pay more for a Mercedes (superb design, superb manufacturing, superb performance), and the other drivers on the road knew it too.

[@_sneer_]

They weren’t actually superb. They had poor anti corrosion protection, diesels were very hard to start in the winter and were very outdated but they were quite reliable. That is the reason Mercedes was gone nearly bankrupt in the 80’s, they were considered a grandpa car. Then with W129 the company switched to making their models stuffed with new and untested technology that reliability went downhill a lot and poor rustproofing stayed making them a complete disaster. Nowadays they just sell Hyundai lookalikes with Renault engines and demand more money for the same shit every other manufacturer markets.

[@peterbierwirth8016]

It's always the4 same problem: there is no 'bespoke' place for the licence plate in the front design. At 0:40 you see the places attached to close to the low and of the radiator grille, wheras it would be better to have a frame attached to the front bumper to place them a bit lower to avoid a haphazard 'squeezed in' impression. Lots of music and not much technical information, not even showing the engines, the interiors, especially the leg room in the front and in the back. My first Mercedes was a 220 (W105) Mercedes year 1959 because my father had a 219 and I wanted to 'top him'. Then I had this W115 and now a W201.

[@Tintoycar]

Are the petrol engines as strong as the diesels?

Bei so etwas denke ich immer an schlecker, jürgen ponto, hanns martin schleyer, pol pot, idi amin, mogadishu, das ding, rauchen war überall erlaubt ausser beim tanken, bleihaltiges Benzin und freilich papa doc, baby doc und somoza. warum nich beatles, elvis oder das knallrote gummiboot als begleitmusik aus der zeit?

[@Tourist1967]

I'm surprised it took so long to consider child/rear seat safety. Even allowing for the benefit of hindsight, the potential problems are obvious.

[@fernandoibarra8698]

Would ypu be interested in selling this car ?

[@draintheswamp232]

These are 1974 and 1975 year model not 73
