    These are the kind of videos that I enjoy watching. I've always known that the W123 is an indistructible car. No matter how much rust and dirt they have. They will always start working. I got a 1984 200 gasoline engine it's a W123 as well and I consider it the best car ever made.

      You are absolutley right. If you want a good quality, reliable Oldtimer, go for a W123, W116, W126 or something like that!

      At first glance you can say this car has a soul. All modern cars look the same, this is because we are getting to 'cars by subscription' business model where you do not own your car but car company owns you.

      @@GedoSenkai You're right. Nowadays all the cars look the same. Even a Mercedes looks too similar to a Hyundai. We're in a decade where design and luxury doesn't matter. As long as it has a screen with lots of apps the car automatically becomes precious to people. Everything has become commercial. I bet you that with one door of a W123 you could make the hood of a Hyundai or Toyota.

      One of the best cars ever but rust wins often and there is no chassis on the car. without the plug in heater an old 240D is hard to start when under forty degrees out. Vacuum is a pain often. I like the part with the torch.

    Мурлыканье этого мотора это просто оргазм для ушей , у отца был такой в начале девяностых годов , я помню этот звук с детства 😍 у меня был такой же жёлтый 2.4 дизель в 2018 году , потрясающий автомобиль

    great vid, flexiny, as always. you've done a great job on this old Merc. i love to see, how you get such veterans fixed an running again. i was smilin' at the moment you spend this 240D 2 "new" flashers, the Merc-star on the trunk-lid and the fuses. after the pressure-washing it looks so majestic like a good old pal you can depend on.
    what i like the most in your vids: concentration on the work, no chatter, no unnecessary clickbait, only needful information. stay as you are =).

    Günümüzde otomobil sektörü bu kaliteye artık özen göstermiyor buna mercedeste dahil.Günümüz araçlarını 40 yıl sonra çalıştırmaya kaltın hiç biri çalışmaz ve dahi yürümez.Kalite bitti herşey plastiğe dönüştü.Mercedes bugün 50-100 bin avroya araç satabiliyorsa bu araçlar sayesindedir.
    Günümüzde w108,w109,w114,w115 w,w123 w124 kalite olarak yeni modelleri ikiye katlar efsane otomobillerdi.
    Bu klasikler Türkiyede servet niteliğinde satılıyor.

    Forgot to mention the old w201 190d 2.5 that we bought when 11 years old with 164,000 miles on the clock and taught all three kids to drive in it ,they shared it between them. sold it after 8 years with 237,000 miles on the clock.
    Must not forget the clk 240 cabriolet that I bought when 9 years old for 6,500 gbp and sold after 10 years for 2,000 pounds .
    These cars all have their pros and cons but overall they are very very very good .

    That's a shame someone let this car get to this state, these cars are amazing reliable and top of the line back in the day,plus the drive like they are on rails,my Dad was a engineer and in his younger years back in the 60s and 70s all he drove were M-B''s , when he got older he became a little more frugal and started driving other brands but ill always remember him telling me "nothing drives like a Mercedes Benz" , mind you this was back in the day when only certain people drove these cars and they were status symbols,these days the school janitor has a new one plus the quality and build and style is just not there anymore, glad to see it rescued!
    Ill share a personal memory, i actually accompanied my Dad to a dock to pick up a brand new 450 SL straight from Germany,had a quart of gas in it, blue , this must have been early 70s,sign some papers and off we went! i was little but i remember it vividly, something else i will never forget on these older models is the noise the doors make when they close, its like a air lock,lol,why did my old man decide to buy it from overseas i have no clue but thats how it went down.

    When they were real Mercedes,works like a clock nice healthy,what a gem.
    I wonder "Flexiny" is this motor something related to vw seat engine code AFN tdi?
    Because the sounds is kinda related and the head looks kinda similiar but on the vertical side.
    Continue all the good work guys,always excited to see the notification to see a good,realiable car.
    God bless you guys

    Türkiye'den sevgiler.. Emeğinize sağlık..Cok güzel bi video olmuş.ilgiyle izledim.11 sene boyunca aynı renk benzinli 230 77 model 123 Mercedes kullandık..Bende bu arabanın sağlamlık ve konforuna şahitlik ederim.Çürümeye terkedilmişken tekrar ayağa kaldırılması harika..

    Этот уникальный автомобиль прослужит ещё столько же если ему уделить внимание. Эти машины создавались людьми, для людей. Никакого маркетинга, только авторитет марки.
