After being idle for 13 years and it starts that well and the first time, the OM601 is fantastic, what a great engine and how hard. It is a bit high from idle and seems to be blowing a little through the oil fill plug, which is why it stopped.
Brought this exact model a few years ago. Was idle for about 10-12 years. Went to pick it up, made sure that everything from oil to wheels and all the other neccesities are alright. Tried to turn it on, started from first try without delay. The only thing I changed was a belt that cost me about 10-20 euros. I believe it was the accesory belt that only made a screeching noise. Other than that, perfect condition. 450.000 km, still running impecable. Went up to 180-200km/h on the highway, stable af. One of the best cars ever. Reliable af. Built like a tank. If taken proper care of, will easly run over 1 milion mileage.
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 Absolutely correct! I tend to go with those because they're newer, some of the last overengineered yet more mechanical platforms. The W140 is still a great platform, but it's got a lot of electronics, prone to problems. Likewise to you, friend! Have a great day! 😉
Nicely done man, mercedes 200d+w124= perfect combo, you make good videos without filling the videos with advertising and begging for subs! You make best videos of starting old cars and other vehicles after sitting for long time
Now I miss my 1992 200d Mercedes! 🥺 It was such a great car, 550.000 km on the odometer and going like new, it was still able to reach 170km/h like a champ! Made my biggest mistake selling it in nearly perfect condition for less than 1000€... All it wanted was a new paintjob.
Late 80s or early to mid 90s 200D. Great and underrated find, man! Classic and solid. Can't ever beat these bulletproof old Benz cars, like the sturdiness of any old car from this time. I remember being a kid and seeing these brand new, in the late 90s. Nostalgic!

Wonderful car, I feel like going to live in your city just to buy a car like the one you recover, congratulations on your efforts in saving these cars.
The sound of a rough diesel engine. Hand crank windows. Manual gear. Tow hook. Gray plastic bumper. Steel wheel. Fabric seat. No rpm meter. All my favorite elements are in this car. It's a really solid car that's true to the basics. After repairing, it will probably be fine even if it travels around the world. Whether jungle or desert...

Same, 2,5l 5 cylinder diesel 190d w201 are awesome!

Every other car: Won't start when having the slightest issue

That's normal on old Diesels, when you have mechanical injection, you can even remove the battery while it's running.
