Oh my!!!! This is positively exquisite! What an absolute find and THE model/spec/colour to own. It's hard to believe one of the original family do not want to keep this. You could sell this 100 times over and still not satisfy demand for this type of prestige wagon. So relevant to today's world too - she will never date.
W.O.W. I have seen many 300TD's,butnever one like this. It is a time capsule and, as a million mile vehicle, barely broken in. Will be interesting to see what it goes for on BAT. Thanks for showcasing this MB eye candy!
Beautiful car and pure quality! But it's so sad to see how you guys from the colonies ruined everything by fitting these ridicule bumpers and headlamps. I feel really sorry!
Nope, it wasn't: the US bumpers were fitted afterwards. And they'd be the only thing I'd change, right away. Honestly...this car is a friend for life! Aaaand....and it has the music cassette (MC) radio fitted! 😂
These are lovely wagons. I owned a 2002 E320 wagon in silver for ten years. Basically Carmela Soprano's car in the early seasons. Now I drive a 2016 Audi A7 sportback since the utility of a wagon is hard not to have.
Is the tachometer repaired? It didn't appear to function on startup. Almost seems a silly question considering its pristine condition but has to be asked!
This is not European-spec: European has thinner bumpers, different headlights and a rear fog light. It also would have only kilometers - no miles as this one does. And you are more likely to find a cloth interior and manual gearbox in Europe. The condition is incredible. But this is totally American.
This is the perfect video of how these sounded when new to all the W123 owners out there that sound like rock crushers with their 200,000 mile original injector nozzles.
This is the best car ever made !!!! this Merc W 123 as station wagoner or sedan body, was the best car made , petrol will do million mile easy, and diesel is known to do double that. TH
Fantastic and definitely one of the very last in this condition but slower than a constipated turtle... That tire (if it's the original spare) would just explode on the highway as it will be so out of date it will be lethal..
The family removed the plastic trim around the door surrounds because they always wrinkle! I am assuming the family also added the non-original labeling strip below the climate control buttons! The strap to hold the spare wheel cover is missing! John Woods' OCD has corrupted me! 😂
Next time use camera with better lenses that will show car in more accurate dimensions. This video clip shows it like car from Mickey or Donald cartoon.
don't forget, the WORLD is a big place and not just america. I'm sure there are examples as good as this throughout the rest of the world that isn't that self centred country that thinks it is the WORLD!
😂 I can assure you I am not self centered. But that’s a silly debate that I won’t take part in. You know of a nicer one ??? Hit me up, as I am a legitimate buyer.
I am reminded by this video that the Americanized Mercedes Benzs from this era were actually better looking than the European models. The American versions had round jewel-like headlamps embedded in a 3-D bezel. In addition to the better-looking headlamps, the American models had the dominant projecting bumpers thanks to the 5 mph bumper requirement. All of the Mercedes of that era benefited from the larger bumpers and headlight requirements IMO
I popped a woody with this car. A TD wagon in this condition & low mileage and perhaps the best color. What a treat to see this!
You need to go see a therapist for your wood popping.
This car is like a brand new one, it's stunning!
That’s quite something! Beautiful classic. You keep surprising Dean - keep up the good work!
…what a beauty. That color is a dream. Mine is an ‘85 white with tan/sand interior and now has 68K miles. I got it when Gran gave up driving in ‘89.
Thank you for sharing with us this jewel Dean! I hope that the new owner will love and enjoy this S123 beauty as the first owner so clearly did.
The best of the Mercedes ever built, I would love to own one of these cars, definitely the best looking station wagons
Between this or a brand new one, I take this any day
Oh my!!!! This is positively exquisite! What an absolute find and THE model/spec/colour to own. It's hard to believe one of the original family do not want to keep this.

What a beautiful car in fantastic condition. Can’t imagine why the owners would ever sell it.
If I had the money, I would come over and buy it, proper Mercedes build quality. The most reliable Mercedes vehicles.
Probably passed away
Even for your store this is amazing, Dean.
Not even at its 1/4 of its life. Mileage wise. What a beauty
Beautiful station wagon! In pristine condition. 😃🎉✌🏼
W.O.W. I have seen many 300TD's,butnever one like this. It is a time capsule and, as a million mile vehicle, barely broken in. Will be interesting to see what it goes for on BAT. Thanks for showcasing this MB eye candy!
Stunner!!
this car is new !!!!! unbelievable
Amazing specimen. My goodness. This one is good enough for Mercedes' own collection.
Awsome find Dean!
Wow!!
If you'd have said it had only covered 377 miles from new I'd had believed it... It's that clean..
Another winner from Dean! incredible
Beautiful car and pure quality! But it's so sad to see how you guys from the colonies ruined everything by fitting these ridicule bumpers and headlamps. I feel really sorry!
So true, from an American.
Love how clean it is. This is an American spec bumper and headlights vehicle. Was it sold that way in Germany? Or what is the story?
Nope, it wasn't: the US bumpers were fitted afterwards. And they'd be the only thing I'd change, right away. Honestly...this car is a friend for life!
Aaaand....and it has the music cassette (MC) radio fitted! 😂
@@thomassturm9024 Not true. It's a US specification car that was delivered to the owner at the factory under the European delivery program.
Gorgeous 123 Estate!!!!
How can i find these fantastic retro cars? I love them all!
These are lovely wagons. I owned a 2002 E320 wagon in silver for ten years. Basically Carmela Soprano's car in the early seasons. Now I drive a 2016 Audi A7 sportback since the utility of a wagon is hard not to have.
Just beautiful. It seems to have American bumpers though?
when is it going to be posted? what a gorgeous MB!
Beautiful car, it needs a pair of European bumpers and a pair of European headlights.
As a European I find the US spec headlights and bumpers way nicer 😂😂😂
Beautiful and rare find. Technically it is a S123 MB 300TD.
Машина з того часу, коли автомобілі були одночасно красивими та практичними ! Респект!
I watched 34 seconds of this video before commenting. If it was RHD I’d be on your doorstep with a bag of cash. 😍😍😍
From a time when estate cars had BIG boots....
Is the tachometer repaired? It didn't appear to function on startup. Almost seems a silly question considering its pristine condition but has to be asked!
That is on the checklist of items that need to be addressed !!! Good eye !!! Thanks, Dean
What happened to the bumpers?
It never showed up on Bring a trailer as far as I can see. WHATS THE LATEST?
Beautiful, but why did they buy a diesel if they weren't going to drive itt?
worth some money....nice vehicle
beautiful car, is it for sale?
Where is for sale in USA ?
This is not European-spec: European has thinner bumpers, different headlights and a rear fog light. It also would have only kilometers - no miles as this one does. And you are more likely to find a cloth interior and manual gearbox in Europe. The condition is incredible. But this is totally American.
100% correct. This is a EUROPEAN DELIVERY example of a US Spec s123. Google search the European Delivery program.
Conto Costa euro
Has this auctioned yet?
At 9:14, you said “it is the best 126 I’ve ever seen in my life……sir, it’s a 123 😳
Watch my other videos. I usually refer to a vehicle with the wrong year, make of tires, etc… Early stages of dementia. 😂
@@deanlaumbachconsulting ….maybe proofread your videos before you finish editing….that way you won’t deal with annoying guys like me 😉
Juste magnificient
Sorry meant or gone. Not sure if the auction took place
This would be my dream daily drive
For sale? How much?
This is the perfect video of how these sounded when new to all the W123 owners out there that sound like rock crushers with their 200,000 mile original injector nozzles.
I would love to know what you get for it at auction
What a stunnig car! ❤
This is the best car ever made !!!! this Merc W 123 as station wagoner or sedan body, was the best car made , petrol will do million mile easy, and diesel is known to do double that. TH
verry nice car i love
That’s a Time Machine. Could make it to 100 years and likely still drive if this amount of care is taken.
Fantastic and definitely one of the very last in this condition but slower than a constipated turtle... That tire (if it's the original spare) would just explode on the highway as it will be so out of date it will be lethal..
Someone wants 9 grand for one nearly identical. Mike’s and condition. I cannot fathom this much, but lovely cars.
Why are the bumpers so huge on this one. You could launch an aircraft from those.
A nice Car when driving in Morocco 🇲🇦 😂❤
المليح
How much is the price?
❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, still or be gone?
I would like to buy it let me know please
❤
Exquisite
A car for Woods and Barclay
John Woods is the man👍
How much ?
Just saw this thing sell for 99.5k Someone bought it for 30k 10 years ago, off the family I presume.
Awesome example but that final price makes no sense at all ($99.5k)
price
No third row? Huh
Is this car on BoT?
Soon !!!!
The family removed the plastic trim around the door surrounds because they always wrinkle! I am assuming the family also added the non-original labeling strip below the climate control buttons! The strap to hold the spare wheel cover is missing! John Woods' OCD has corrupted me! 😂
👍👍👍💥💥💥
W123, not 126
how match dear
