I love the video bro, but yours was a 5 speed and the speakers were blaumpunkt

This is hands down the best car Mercedes has ever made.

You truly can't explain how the driving experience feels....its so smooth.
I am a car dealer and earlier on this year, i was able to buy a W124(300CE) for myself with a 5 speed manual Transmission...its a dream come true cos I've always loved it since I was a kid, one of our neighbours had it.

[AV-chmu]

Every kid who grew up in the 90s in Eastern Europe/Balkans dreamed of having this car, and we still dream on to this day 😂

You can’t drive this without wearing a Kappa track suit and some Diadora soccer shoes .

VOLCHOK ("young wolf" or a "wolf pup") is what we called the W124 E500 model specifically. There was also KABAN ("boar") - it's what we used to call the W140.

[jamesivan]

One of the best cars you've had on here. Porsche really left it's mark. Even that chassis is the best

[jamescox]

This Mercedes and the e38 BMW are absolute icons!!!

I currently own the 1992 300E in satin matte black lowered on 20’s and dark tints and it has been and remains to be my favourite car regardless.
Currently replacing the water pump which I must say is quite a challenge compared to others I’ve changed but I love the adventure of fixing it.

The car brings back some sweet memories of my blue-black W124 AMG 3.4 4V. One of the smoothest and purest luxury sports rides of the day back then. I had one of only 100 on the road in Japan back in the day.

My daily is a Black 2001 W210 E430 that I found in excellent condition last year and I did similar mods such as blacking out the grill and all the chrome and tinting the windows then adding lowered sport-touring springs with a new set of wheels and tires for the ‘gangster Merc’ look. I did a mild cat-back exhaust and a cold air kit for a little more intake and exhaust noise when I want it but it still flies well under the radar and could cruise at 90 all day long without raising an eyebrow. Not a ‘fast’ car by any means (I have an W211 E55 for that) but it’s comfortable and powerful enough (about the same 290 hp as the E500) to keep up with highway traffic without breaking a sweat.

The pleasant ‘German car smell’ of the leather and the gleam of the polished wood trim make it feel very inviting inside and the ‘click’ of the switches is very nostalgically satisfying. It’s quiet and amazingly rattle free for its age and is just old enough to feel like you are driving something special. A late night ice cream run for the missus takes me on a cloak and dagger mission where I imagine I’m a secret agent saving the world from tyranny. Not really, but it does make the trip way more interesting than the wife’s Honda Civic! 😂 Beautiful Mercedes!

I can totally relate to his expression with this car. Something about how cars were built back then that just makes you smile. The craftsmanship that went into them is just amazing! And this car here is clean and looks mean without going crazy with modifications. Great video!

[toopacked]

No What a legendary car. We owned a 4.2 swapped 5.0 engine. One of the smoothest rides i’ve ever had, and one of the best cars ever manufactured.

[BenjaminKing]

My wife and I drive around in a W124 320E. Not a 500 but we love driving that car. Bone stock and still pretty clean. Best ride of our little fleet even with over 200k miles

[drwales]

Man, the paint job on the car completely blows my mind! So sick and sweet bringing this classic to life 😍 😍

[pkpnyt]

FYI - The headrest button only works when the rear headrests are upright. If you press that button it activates a pneumatic system and the upright headrests in the rear will go down. To lift the rear headrest it has to be manually lifted by the passenger, which is pretty easy. The original brand of radio came in 2 flavors depending on what you chose. It was either a Blaupunkt or a Becker radio system (At least if you got a Euro version).

I've recently rediscovered my love for this model, I almost completely forgot about it since it became rare on roads nowadays. But luckily there are people keeping this machines alive, and we should be thankful to them for preserving a piece of car history

[mustafastokely]

I've owned both a W124 (1992) 500E and a W124 (1993) 400E. While there were differences in the way they "drove and handled, " performance wise, the 400E seemed just as quick. Some people have called the W124 "the best car in the world, " and perhaps it came close to that when they were new. Despite the passage of some decades, your car looks very cool, very lethal, and very fun! Congratulations and I hope you are planning on keeping it for a very long time.

[AyeDieg]

I've owned my 400E as my daily for about 3 years and I love it, never getting rid of it.

It was "BlauPunkt". It has a Blue Dot in front of the name which is the definition of "Blaupunkt". It means Blue Point or Blue Dot. I remember sitting in a few of them when I was younger with the "Blaupunkt" stereo system and actually getting to drive a 1995-ish V12 S600 W140 back in the early 2000's... which is one of my Favorite because that car rode So Smooth!!!!
