Have owned x4 w124’s, good cars. A saloon, a coupe and a couple of estates… I like estates! Have a later e class estate these days but still would like another w124. Good work as usual.
I had a T reg 1999 C250 TD estate auto and all the toys. The only car I truly regretted selling. Put 100k on it and sold it for £100 less than I bought it for. I have put two non turbo engines in fighing boats 20 odd years ago and are still going strong.
I love the old mercs I had an old 1997 w203 c180 petrol with LPG conversion that I bought with 240k on the clock for £350 8 years ago that I had for 3 years when I got bored of it, had 290k all I spent on it was 3 new tyres and a relay for the LPG system and some body filler…. Sold it for more then I paid for it too! Still on the road now 310k last time I checked, original engine and gear box aswell! Have a w203 C200 now, fancy a change….
That key box just brought back a nightmare from years ago I had to sort over 400 sets of keys for trucks and not one had a reg on it it took weeks to sort they had a barcode but no reg I had to compare the barcode tag to piles of vehicle lists that had the barcode and reg it was over 4 years of vehicles
One of the best videos I’ve watched, the sayings I was laughing so much. Keep it up. What is the music that u use for the video ? And the guitar one as well. I remember these cars and as u say built like tanks,u could not kill them for love nor money. The old Volvo of the 90’s as well could not destroy them at all they were nuclear. Build quality with any car today is absolute garbage.
I must have the only RHD w124 estate 300 td turbo OM 603 turbo in the uk. Don’t know why Mercedes said you could not fit a turbo in a RHD w124 I managed with a euro spec 300d om 603 turbo diesel engine from a German car. … Great channel can’t beat a diesel Merc
Strange that they made a 250 Turbo Diesel T-Model for Great Britain. In Germany and the rest of Europe the OM 602A was only available in the limousine.
Now then I live in the midlands, years ago there was a company in the midlands called Jack Allen they built bodies for bin lorries ect . All their fleet of sales cars where the same colour and they were all mercs what a lovely colour it is.
Hello bud just found ya on here iv watched a few of your videos the transit 1 and 2 with the broken piston thingy when you doing part 3? anyway just wanted to say i really like your channel and have subbed and clicked the bell thing too Love the old merc they certainly were bomb proof Keep up the good work and see ya on the next one 👍👍
I had an x reg 2 littre kompresor x reg lovely car but just then I realised I had fucked up first when I payed a grand for the exhaust . And then when it went rusty rusty , I wish I had slapped my self and said newer is not always better . By the way the Peugeot you did last week never slam the boot to hard because if the rear window breaks the boot bottom will fall on the floor 🤣
Hi Al brilliant video mate I absolutely loved it 👍 Can I just ask, is that a genuine BMW police car in your yard and if so did it come with a hole in the side of the block? I've always been led to believe that you can't buy BMW police cars and the ones that did slip through the cracks all had holes put in the side of the blocks to render them useless!!! I love your channel Al and I really hope you start to get a lot of people subscribing...👍🙂👍
Belligerent me wants to say where's the atsra van gone ?. Hydeolasric reminds me of the metro don't say that word. That my friend is a very sexy state , sorry mean estate 🤣🤣
I'm looking for a flat flatbed sprinter in a few months that can tow 3.5 ton what model number should I be looking for I need one without adblue can you help please
Can I bring myself to buy a post 2015 car no probably not what car.do I want next who knows , I'm sure I will find something. I wish I was doing what you are doing , hgv driving shunting is boring .
@@6DDIESELSDorset Thank you. An other question: Would it be possible to have english number plates and assurance, because it's not allowed to drive with german plates in UK. Is the car complete and has enogh tire profile?
I think you need an oil additive in the merc 🤣🤣🤣 not likely . I never saw the astra van on ebay you must have dine a deal . You know your motors fair play
Bulgarian man like polski etc want premium German diesel and then move to uk and discards their most prized asset like a Gary glitter fan ditched D’ya wanna be in my gang CD’s .
My fauvorite car ever, Mb *124 series with OM602 engine, in my fauvorite colour, Malachite Green. Love it. ❤

Didn't doubt it would start, cracking old bus 💪
Love the commentary and you've got a great voice. Thanks for making this for the often overlooked OM602 engine.

Are you going to sell this car? Where is it located?
£3500 and north Dorset 👍
@@6DDIESELSDorset Ok, it seams to be near Shaftesbury. What's with rost? For example the suspension of the rear axle.
It’s solid as a rock no rot , bit of lacquer peel that’s about it 👍
@@6DDIESELSDorset Thank you. An other question: Would it be possible to have english number plates and assurance, because it's not allowed to drive with german plates in UK. Is the car complete and has enogh tire profile?
DID YOU SELL IT ??
No advertised it yet £3500 buys the old girl
Na the 210 reminds me of a vw polo never liked that model either .
I think you need an oil additive in the merc 🤣🤣🤣 not likely .
I never saw the astra van on ebay you must have dine a deal .
You know your motors fair play
Bulgarian registered…. 🤔 Best do a carvertical check then
That "stuff" on the steering wheel is feeding and breeding of the skin cells, sweat and bacteria from the drivers hands, yuck.
You been buying dodgy cars off Romanians 😁🤣🤣
Bulgarian man like polski etc want premium German diesel and then move to uk and discards their most prized asset like a Gary glitter fan ditched D’ya wanna be in my gang CD’s .
What an absolute meme
