not all junk if my 2001 e220cdi didn't warn me that I have too little or too much motor oil I would never get to 375000km still runs great

[@EnriqueLopez-hb5jn]

@@nemaga13 When I am talking about computerized cars,I am talking about a lot of newer cars, that you basically have to have computer knowledge, in order to work on the newer, cars, not like the car you have, that it is still mechanical but with some computerized items, the cars from the 80s and back were basically mechanical, 90s,still ok, 2000 maybe the mid 1985,is when they they completely more or less becomecomputerized

Glad to see this from Ghana. Wonderful job on what is considered one of the most reliable cars in the world. I am glad some Ghanaian like you understand and respects this beauty of a car. I have seen a couple of these vehicles go for relatively cheap in Ghana where price average about $1,100. I am considering getting on soon and will bring to your shop for a restoration like this, as most of them are not well cared for. Thanks again.

Amazing work!!! Congratulations and thank you for saving and loving Classic Mercedes!!!

[@123works]

Thanks Buddy!

[@TheGentleman1987]

The insulation had me in tears. Greatest job ever! Thank you !!!!

[@graemelliott3942]

You’re work is amazing. You insulated for noise better than the factory did. Congratulations!

[@harshabiliangady3211]

While I agree with you the essence of the W123 200 is the sound of it’s healthy Diesel engine

[@Bauerofficial]

@@harshabiliangady3211 it's a gasoline 200 not diesel.

[@ukranaut]

Although this insulation is often the main reason of rust.

Beautiful car. I dream of my W123ce being like this one day ! Hi from New Zealand.

Great job saving a gem. I enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing,

Man,this is brilliant! I'm in Johannesburg and also have a 200A/C 1981 , I desperately need this level of attention on my baby,Silver Blue. Rear window rust,left side too and all clear coat has disappeared. She stood all her life in Mossel Bay , the fog,the blazing sun took its toll...

Big Man, respect from Paris for this restauration. In 2013, I studied at UCC for a year and loved to see the old Mercedes cars still going strong in Ghana, definitely also because of passionate people like you!

[@leifandersson6808]

Great job, I once had a white 200 sedan, 1985. I still regret selling that car. Think I’ll buy a w123 again. Collectors car, classic. Mercedes Benz❤️

[@hansfritz9180]

I am genuinely impressed with this great job. Some "oldtimer workshops" here in Germany can learn a lot about that.

That is a great restoration job. I have the same model but 4 speed manual, these are great cars, I have owned mine since 1989 (second owner) This was my first Mercedes and although I have owned newer ones, I cannot bear to part with my w123. The 5 speed manual you have coupled with M102 motor would be a fun car to drive. Thanks for taking the time to make and share this interesting video. Greetings from New Zealand

It's a part of the family, dry garaged from new, 30.000 miles, all original, has all the paper stickers from factory, shes a time capsule. Just in the process of a sympathetic recommison after many years in hibernation. Yes, quite a responsibility!

[@DangerDIY]

Love this restoration. Super impressive! Thank you for sharing. I really enjoy seeing what people have done to their W123s. It motivates me to keep mine in better condition. That said, I don't know if I would ever be brave enough to tear down my W123 to the level you did. I'd be afraid it would never get back together. God bless and happy New Year from Texas.

Thanks for Watching. Happy New year from GH

[@bbbmw]

Amazing. I had a weird one here in the states. 240D automatic but it had full leather interior (dark blue) factory alloys, ac, power windows. I loved all 52 horsepower of that fabulous car 🚙

I what a beautiful job you've done! Very good from bumper to bumper. The extra work on the sound insulation will pay dividends. But I'm not in the least bit surprised. You are from Ghana. The very best mechanics come from Ghana. I should know I worked there many years ago.

Even in Ghana Mercedes rust.

[@paschalnyamogo6959]

You are aware that Ghana ends at the Atlantic Ocean right? Just like in Kenya 🇰🇪 , we know to avoid classic cars from Mombasa because of the Indian Ocean, but those inland are okay.
