@@mariochrist5076 Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, ich bin ein Fan von Mercedes-Fahrzeugen, insbesondere des Modells w126. Ich habe im Internet viel nach Videos zur Herstellung dieses Modells gesucht, aber nichts gefunden. Kannst du helfen?
В93 г пришлось побывать на этом заводе.Нас водили туда на экскурсию.Я был поражён до мозга костей всей этой технологией.Я видел как собирают тракторы ДТ75,зубило молоток,бога мать.А такого чуткого отрошения к плодам производства как на этом заводе,я не встречал.Это вечная машина.Я тогда приезжал в германию за машиной и сразу купил 126мерседес.Он до сих пор у меня и он в отличном состоянии.Ещё есть 123 и тоже в отличном состоянии.Езжу на них везде,зимой и летом.
Worked on these for 8 yrs. and finally owned a late production V8 model. What a fine automobile from the dear, gone, mostly pre-electronics days. Absurdly expensive, sometimes un-diagnosable electronic issues are why I left the automotive industry.
This should be mandatory viewing for every Mercedes executive today. Even if it doesn't change their ways at least they know how things were supposed to be made.
No the 70 were the years of oil crisis and economical recession, so the car were made cheap and rusted really fast. I think the best quality of most cars was in the late 80’s and early 90’s. The 90’s there was the best compromise of quality and modern technology at cars.
Not true. If you are really into high performance cars we are at the zenith of ICE technology and all the other advances in material science, vehicle dynamics all come together.
As a young person, I never really understood what was so special about these Mercedes & BMW vehicles. Looking back today, you really have to say that series like the W116 or SLR107 show more than just engineering at the highest level, at a time when other vehicles were pure tin cans. They reflect the time of a Germany & a world in which certain values still applied. For your money you got a vehicle that was carefully designed down to the last detail and everyone looked up with full respect. This solidity, the reliable quality of the old Bonn republic is reflected in every corner of this S-class. I can remember an experience in the middle of the 90s, it was the air show of the US base, open house and at the same time the last service of a friend there. He had fulfilled his childhood dream, a 450SEL 6.9. We drove to the site in the afternoon. An old US general saw us in the car and sat next to us on the stage. He said to my friend: If I had to explain to someone in America how Germany works and how its people think - I would show your Mercedes. Nothing impressed him more than this car in the mid-1970s.
Sehr schönes, nostalgisches Video ! Unglaublich, wenn man bedenkt, dass diese qualitativ hochwertigen Aufnahmen, die so gar nicht alt aussehen, schon über 40 Jahre sein müssen. Damals wurde ja noch gleichzeitig die "Strich 8"-E-Klasse, der Vorgänger des W 123, produziert. Die W 116 - S-Klasse ist für mich bis heute die schönste Luxuslimousine aller Zeiten, der Inbegriff von Luxus in den 70er-Jahren. Ich habe selbst mal einen W 116 gefahren, einen 280 SE, Baujahr 1979. Das waren wunderschöne Autos !
J'aime surtout cette musique qui accompagne cette vidéo ; L'âge d'or des seventies! Malheureusement on est loin de cette époque, ça ne nous rajeunit pas. J'avais cinq ans à l'époque je m'en souviens, mais aujourd'hui c'est plus pareil. Excusez-moi d'être hors sujet , ce sont les cris des sirènes de cette nostalgie glorieuse qui me retient!
Ja, wenn man diesen Film sieht und auch dabei berücksichtigt wie viel Mitarbeiter alleine nur Kontrollfunktion haben ohne wirklich etwas zu arbeiten oder zwei Mann die das Armaturenbrett einbauen wo heute der Roboter das bereits vollkommen fertig bestückte Armaturenbrett automatisch einsetzt
Beautiful combination! German car and Brazilian music! (Music: Quincas Moreira is an improvisor, composer, producer, engineer and synth builder from Brazil, educated in the US and currently living in Mexico City).
I started collecting W116 S class 15 years ago, Phenomenal cars from the 280 S, 350 SE to the 450 SE and SEL. I dont have a 6.9 thought, its a bit beyond my capabilities but I have an early C107 to make up for it :-)
That was a real treat seeing this them where the days when engineers ran Mercedes and not accountants!! Brings back memories of my late fathers 1976 350se he loved that car having it from new, it was always me that cleaned it I would take ages doing it. God I really wish I had kept it. Even now 30years later I still miss it.
I have a W116 1975 450SEL and a R107 1980 450SL. So I got to see mainly the SEL/W116 being made and a few clips of the R107 being made. It’s neat how they put together components and tested them right away. Like the transmission valve body being assembled at 9:30.
I worked as a worker at Toyota and VW in Japan as a winter job. The Benz of this time was wonderful because it was built with time and effort that cannot be done now that productivity is required ...
No matter how many times I’ve seen this video it always makes me smile. The cheesy music is just the icing on the cake. The W116 will always be my first MB love.
There was welding robots in this video too, didn't you see them? Cars are still at the assembly line very much assembled by hand today. Many tools to help the workers are better nowadays tough.
That car was overengineered, built to last a lifetime, maybe more. Those workers were really talented, the best craftsmanship... It's a lost trade now sadly
hi iam so interested in mercedes cars especially w126 model iam looking for videos about model w126 that made in 1980.1982.84 and so on if you have any videos please send me the link.thanks
These highly trained specialized employees make these positins look simple while in reality they are exhausting repetitive jobs that are burdened with heavy auto parts and dangerous paints and other chemicals. By today's standards they look as if they are in slow motion. Thanks for your dedication to quality to keep us safe.
If They made exactly the same Mercedes cars today(like models ranging 1970-1995) I would definitely prefer them over most modern cars, even todays Benzes
In the time when Engineers dictated what was good for a car, not the financial manager like these days.....then Mercedes was really the best car by far in those days, not any other car manufactor could stand in there shadow, but those days are long gone.....very very nice video!!
The last of the truly gorgeous MB line. Big sedans, big grills, big hood ornament, defined lines. You knew when a Benz was coming up behind you, and you knew it was a Benz when you were behind it. Nothing compared to the power, luxury and status of owning one of these amazing machines. How sad they all look like a Corolla now. I wouldn't own one if they gave it to me. A 4-cylinder engine in a Benz just seems beneath the line. I'll be looking for a W-116 450 SEL when the time comes. It will be worth the $$ to restore it and make a statement.
Fascinating. Compared to modern production videos it seems like total madness how much is by hand and how un-precise some of the production techniques look!
once upon a time, now germans specialized in speculation and corruption becaming the bankster and the merkelreich EU. and the overall quality is rubbish. just scavanging of the good name the previous generation made
W116 was most impressive car for me at that time. Look at clearance on body shell, never experience door shouting like that in any car ever. Interior quality, design, and solidity of construction everywhere is unsurpassed. Sometimes catch myself how I think they build them as replacement for tanks in case of WW III!
What an amazing ballet of machines, humans, and technology car building is. Far fewer humans needed today. Probably only 20% of what it took when this was filmed. And gosh, I don't think I could install seats all day, probably a couple and my back would be out.
I never knew that the production and the manufacturing of these vehicles, were assembled in panels. I thought this was one whole car body ! Which effectively meant that the spot welding and bolts holding the car together, were obscured in such a way that they could not be seen... By the way, I have a W126 and a W124 standing in my driveway right now and it's 2021 !!! 😎
Ja! Habe Kollegen von mir aus dem Bereich Rohbau wieder erkannt. Mir fällt sogar noch der Name, auch der Meister und des Abteilungsleiters ( Ingenieur F.) ein. "Bachmann. Wir liefern Qualität ab.

Mein Wagen wurde im März 1980 für die USA gebaut, Kalifornien Ausführung. Würde diese Geschichten noch stundenlang hören. Was bedeutete die 4 stellige Schichtnummer auf den Datenkarten? Meine heisst 5084.
When the German car was a German car and the United States was actually USA, when the women were beautiful and the men were real men and no tattoos. When the intellectuals were not Communists and when you got exactly what you were paying for. When a Mercedes was a Mercedes.
Almost brought a tear to my eye. Where are these type Mercedes today? They were so classy looking. The raised hood emblem should have never been replaced.
Merci pour tes vidéos mec! Je suis moi-même un véritable fan de Mercedes-Benz également propriétaire et personnellement j'adore regarder la manière dont elles sont fabriquées surtout les anciens modèles que j'apprécie énormément. Cordialement😉
Real quality engineering I had an 88 golf I got it in 2003 the body was rock solid just a few bubbles on the lower rear arches that was all and that was after 15 uk winters. I remember a branch off an ash tree in my garden came to land on the wing only minor dent on it.tanklike.
That's what it would be like. That's how you built the best cars in the world. Even BMW, Volvo built quality at that time. It was so they became famous. At that time nobody came to Mercedes nearby. Japan, France's Italian cars did not hold the same measure. My dad had such a Mercedes. We went Eropa around and there was never any problem. He also had Ford and Opel and WW bubble but there were problem cars. Two brands that never left us on the road were Mercedes and Volvo. It was just filling up with gasoline and driving.
This is not totally true. Mercedes had not much concurrence in term of luxury, I agree, but they were not the only cars to be reliable. BMW, Volvo, Peugeot 404, 504. Toyota Land Cruiser, Hi-Lux or Celica in the 70's were really tough cars which were at least as reliable as a Mercedes. And all cars had 1 big problem by the time: rust. This was a main issue for Mercedes until recently.
Hahaha please you have obviously never driven a Toyota Hilux/Land Cruiser diesel through the harshest terrain in the world through the jungles of Africa and South America ,or the deserts of Australia and the Middle East without breaking down.

W116 made the Mercedes the king in Luxury Class..
Época em que se construiam carros de verdade. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Si es cierto
Excelente vídeo. Tenho um 1975 a 30 anos, continua sendo um automóvel!
When the German car was a German car and the United States was actually USA, when the women were beautiful and the men were real men and no tattoos. When the intellectuals were not Communists and when you got exactly what you were paying for. When a Mercedes was a Mercedes.
darie99 dam right
Good old times !
thats true, thanks!
darie99/when every country make their products on its own land not in china, Taiwan,Singapore and hong kong.
That's true
How true that is, my friend!
Almost brought a tear to my eye. Where are these type Mercedes today? They were so classy looking. The raised hood emblem should have never been replaced.
Greatest company and cars in the whole planet. My first love and finale. Mercedes benz
MB # 1 !!!
Блин даже в 70 ые годы немцы выпускали мерсы с кондиционером и люком.
Ты ещё про коробку автомат забыл...
Это Мерседес. Машина бизнес класса. На экспорт Жигули тоже много чем комплектовались.
@@dziimawercigetorik6767 и чем же если не секрет... Правым зеркалом заднего вида?)))
Dziima Wercigetorik ага улучшеной сборкой 😂
Dziima Wercigetorik жигули на экспорт, а это мерседес для жителей германии, для своего народа. Разницу чувствуете? Раша до сих пор каку выпускает.
Man this is some good quality film for the time. Top notch, mad detail
Эхх сейчас бы такие машины делали! Шедевр в автомобилестроения
с Любовью строили же....
Дааааа
Brings me to tears watching those beauties come out fresh and knowing I have one rotting away
Merci pour tes vidéos mec!
Je suis moi-même un véritable fan de Mercedes-Benz également propriétaire et personnellement j'adore regarder la manière dont elles sont fabriquées surtout les anciens modèles que j'apprécie énormément.
Cordialement😉
so glad they are building these old benz`s again :-)
Красота да и только!
Real quality engineering I had an 88 golf I got it in 2003 the body was rock solid just a few bubbles on the lower rear arches that was all and that was after 15 uk winters. I remember a branch off an ash tree in my garden came to land on the wing only minor dent on it.tanklike.
That's what it would be like. That's how you built the best cars in the world. Even BMW, Volvo built quality at that time. It was so they became famous. At that time nobody came to Mercedes nearby. Japan, France's Italian cars did not hold the same measure. My dad had such a Mercedes. We went Eropa around and there was never any problem. He also had Ford and Opel and WW bubble but there were problem cars. Two brands that never left us on the road were Mercedes and Volvo. It was just filling up with gasoline and driving.
This is not totally true. Mercedes had not much concurrence in term of luxury, I agree, but they were not the only cars to be reliable. BMW, Volvo, Peugeot 404, 504. Toyota Land Cruiser, Hi-Lux or Celica in the 70's were really tough cars which were at least as reliable as a Mercedes.
And all cars had 1 big problem by the time: rust. This was a main issue for Mercedes until recently.
Hahaha please you have obviously never driven a Toyota Hilux/Land Cruiser diesel through the harshest terrain in the world through the jungles of Africa and South America ,or the deserts of Australia and the Middle East without breaking down.
This type Mercedes is one of the best models ever build by Mercedes.
Love Germans, German engineering & Deutschland... 🇩🇪
Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰❤☝
