1990 Mercedes-Benz W124 300E 3.0L SOHC 12V from North America
Summary:
Timeless
Faults:
Water Pump was dead when I bought it.
Glove box bulb burned out.
General Comments:
What can one say after owning this car?
Timeless styling, decent handling, superior craftsmanship.
Parts are also easy to get and inexpensive. It is essential to have a specialist repair the car if needed. Otherwise, most of the work is simple enough to be handled by DIY mechanics with simple tools and a Haynes manual.
I wish they had made more of these cars manual. I am currently attempting a conversion.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Heater fan repair (known as the blower motor) does NOT require dash removal. Access to this assembly is from the engine compartment (requires wiper motor & linkage removal). This is a job for a Mercedes Benz mechanic. I charge 2.5 hours labor ($90.00 US per hour) plus parts for this repair. Will most likely need new blower motor assembly. Hope this helps.
