Have owned x4 w124’s, good cars. A saloon, a coupe and a couple of estates… I like estates! Have a later e class estate these days but still would like another w124. Good work as usual.

I had a T reg 1999 C250 TD estate auto and all the toys. The only car I truly regretted selling. Put 100k on it and sold it for £100 less than I bought it for. I have put two non turbo engines in fighing boats 20 odd years ago and are still going strong.

I love the old mercs I had an old 1997 w203 c180 petrol with LPG conversion that I bought with 240k on the clock for £350 8 years ago that I had for 3 years when I got bored of it, had 290k all I spent on it was 3 new tyres and a relay for the LPG system and some body filler…. Sold it for more then I paid for it too! Still on the road now 310k last time I checked, original engine and gear box aswell! Have a w203 C200 now, fancy a change….

That key box just brought back a nightmare from years ago I had to sort over 400 sets of keys for trucks and not one had a reg on it it took weeks to sort they had a barcode but no reg I had to compare the barcode tag to piles of vehicle lists that had the barcode and reg it was over 4 years of vehicles

I must have the only RHD w124 estate 300 td turbo OM 603 turbo in the uk. Don’t know why Mercedes said you could not fit a turbo in a RHD w124 I managed with a euro spec 300d om 603 turbo diesel engine from a German car. … Great channel can’t beat a diesel Merc

One of the best videos I’ve watched, the sayings I was laughing so much. Keep it up. What is the music that u use for the video ? And the guitar one as well. I remember these cars and as u say built like tanks,u could not kill them for love nor money. The old Volvo of the 90’s as well could not destroy them at all they were nuclear. Build quality with any car today is absolute garbage.

I had an x reg 2 littre kompresor x reg lovely car but just then I realised I had fucked up first when I payed a grand for the exhaust . And then when it went rusty rusty , I wish I had slapped my self and said newer is not always better . By the way the Peugeot you did last week never slam the boot to hard because if the rear window breaks the boot bottom will fall on the floor 🤣

Hi Al brilliant video mate I absolutely loved it 👍 Can I just ask, is that a genuine BMW police car in your yard and if so did it come with a hole in the side of the block? I've always been led to believe that you can't buy BMW police cars and the ones that did slip through the cracks all had holes put in the side of the blocks to render them useless!!! I love your channel Al and I really hope you start to get a lot of people subscribing...👍🙂👍
