I've been enjoying my '83 300D Turbo (with nearly 400K mi.) out here in Northern California for the past 14 years and it shows no signs of stopping. I've owned six of these and love working on them. Most of the other W123's I've owned I brought back from the brink of destruction at a junk yard. Lets all do what we can to save these great awesome cars!

Am originally from Jerusalem, and we never looked at the W123 mercedes in all trims as a luxury vehicle , and I don't think Mercedes Benz did , it's just a car that's built to highest quality possible to serve you for life

Different marketing campaign for the states. We only got "luxury" versions that included pretty much every option so they were very expensive.

Fixing up my dad's 1978 230 that oddly has a W115 engine in a W123 chassis. Bulletproof car though.

I do also think you’re right in the car needing tuning and losing power. I would have it looked into, it could be something as simple as a vacuum line.

Great breakdown of this model. I’m thinking of buying a 1979 24OD. They seem engineered to last forever if taken care of. Btw, where is this lovely area you are driving through. The trees are incredible.

This is a 300D Turbo. A 300TD is the station wagon. The T stands for touring.
