Never saw 124 cabrio in my life. But had a chence to ride 124 sedan in the perfect condition recently (never expected 35 y.o. car tobe in a such great condition) To my surprise I found nothing luxurious about it. Even my daily drive 204 felt more like that. So for me myth about good old days when grass were more green and cars more quality and luxurious is debunked. W124 is just an old car and nothing else.
Oh by the way about quality. Plastic in 124 is more suitable for hiundai by modern standards. Again even 204 interior made waaay batter. Its just feels more substantial sort of.
And you know why I even bothered to go inspect that 124 I talking about? I attempted to buy it. But after couple of minutes inside I was really disappointed. All this talking about "QUALITY" turned out to be bullshit. Cute car though.
There is luxury in reliability my friend, I’ve owned some money pits in my time BMWX5, VOLVO 940se, Mercedes 500sel (w140) Mercedes e400 a207. my w124 (sedan) 300d I love the most of my car history because it always starts, I service it myself twice a year and it’s just used on the weekend after years of daily driving. My daily now is a TOYOTA Landcruiser, luxury in reliability.
@martinwalsh7126 That's cute that you came up with own definition of luxury more plausible for your priorities. But, it doesn't work like that my friend. That your toyota has steering wheel and a/c doesn't make it luxury car by no means.
Well, It would be interesting that you would make an Review/Commentary on W140 CL(Coupe).

thank you for watching, Totally disagree with you sir! A124 w124 were much softer, lighter and more luxurious, smell alone had more quilty in it
