Well done, at least u tried, great vid and great cars/crack.

Last mot 2008......

ohhh I feel this! only with bmws tho. NICE video!

What has the sea got to do with the rust 😂. Did the previous owner drive it on the beach ? It's road salt that kills cars never buy one from a scotchland

W123

Very bad work !

My GTI 16v was a barnfind and has been still for TWELVE years! When I got it, it was starting like nothing happened to it. Sure, I didnt drive with it like that, I quickly changed oil and other stuff, but the sick part was that it WORKED. I really want to keep my 16v forever, its a very fun car.

New spark plugs do wonders 😂

I remember trading cartons of cigarettes for all the parts you could carry out of a scrapyard in Germany. Good luck finding front end parts for Mercedes, they are faster but don’t slow faster 😂

That straight six engine is excellent. Had that engine in a 74 coupe and in a 76 SE with mechanical fuel injection. Higher revving, dohc and dual exhaust

Had a 280 SE 4 spd, great car, solid

2.5 tdi came in 3 flavours in the uk too. I believe your van is 2001 model. My t4 was called shit stain because it had some form of horrible brown creosote substitute spilled over the paswanger seat by the previous owner.

why😪

I would’ve turn back home and take the loss instead of even trying to come close to that piece of junk. Whomever dare selling that vehicle should be arrested immediately 😮.

You know, for such an expensive vehicle at least in America, they’re nothing less than a rust bucket 😢

replace the intake injector orings they may be creating a biv vccum leak

Felicitaciones por volver ese W123 a la vida, para mi es el mejor y mas lindo de los Mercedes!!! Otra cosa es que me parecio un poco largo el video con pasajes que deberìan ser mas cortos y algunos sin importancia; pero lo importante es que està funcionando. Veremos como reparan la carrocerìa y los herrumbres. He notado que todos los Mercedes son bastante malos en lo que se refiere al metal de la carroceria pero de motor una maquina infernal. Felicitaciones nuevamente y espero a ver cuando lo pintan....

I just write to say how stupid you are and that's wonderful 👍

That’s awesome determination guys, good job 👏🙌greetings from USA 🇺🇸

Good onya fellas,Beautiful!🇦🇺

Bro, just ship one from California. We're literally junking rust free w123s over here. Check out the inventory at lkq and row52.

The test drive unlimited dealership music when applying lano, brilliant😂😂

Full Restoration, challenge accepted

I don't know about England, but in Europe it is not always correct. in 99% of cases everything is correct, but in 1% it is not. many sondermodels from 1988, they are marked “19” on the chassis, ce1 electronics etc… but have large windows, updated badges and other 1gz stuff. My 06/88 memphis is one of these.

Just grabbed a W210 300TD estate in France with 133,000 miles. It isn't as bad as you would think but needs a couple of front wings, new o-rings in the fuel lines, gearbox service, engine service, but for 1750 euros I am very happy! Had it been parked there it would have been a pile of cornflakes surrounding and engine and box 🤣

I admire your determination and application and wish you well for the future of this project - as a Mercedes nut I have to say this car is worth saving.

The Wall street shuffle!

I never liked this model from Mercedes, but so many of them are still everyday drive in East of Europe. And yeah, they rust even on the sun, so 99% of all I've seen have rust issue. This one particularly looks like a parts donor vehicle or parts for sale type of vehicle.

I think mercedes is the ghetto is my new favourite song 😂

Better idea. Dump the antiques roadshow bosch jetronic for a 350 chev. Sure its a bit more work but 350 chevs are everywhere. Moral of the story dont buy a car sight unseen.

😳

Yo, I enjoyed this video. Thanks! Can you please tell me which music tracks were used for both the first GT2 lap, and then the comparison two-frame portion? Love those OST songs, and cant remember which ones they were. Great use of them in your video!

This is great public service video....don't touch the coil spring on your car if you haven't got a clue how they work 😮😮😮

Class stuff as always lads

Loved this video. Had a real adventure feel about it, whilst also a good criac with your mates. Looking forward to seeing what happens next with the W123. Hopefully not a Coke can. 😁

There might be a 300D in Girvan...i bought a 1977 W123 in Uluru Australia...1000 bux...fuel line..battery....3000kms to melbourne...blew both rear tyres on the way...same rims as yours...bonus..same as a Ford Falcon...good job lads...

Thanks so much for saving her!! Big respect!!🤝

There is nothing like the TT mk1

All credit to you for taking on a W123 with more rust than the Titanic. I had zero expectation it would even move let alone start so the fact that you managed both was epic!

GTA2 Soundtrack : instant grin

Bla, ... Bla... Bla

I go up there 3 times a year on hols, it’s some drive, you come back the single track A836?

Parked for ten years he said more like 20 but for £150 the wheels and tyres are worth more money then that I can see that being alot more rotten underneath I would carryed on with it being left on the trailer till you got it back home even if its to far gone you have plenty of parts to keep or sell on

just found you're channel and have subbed but being a Scottish and living in Scotland there is no way you are covered in sunburn. weather beating I can understand but sunburnt I'm not having it lol

Aha ,I knew it! you can drive from Scotland to Ireland ! and it's the only 280SE W123 known to man .

amazing, what a watch! 💖💖

Guy's l'm gonna be Completely honest , you got scammed it's a parts car what's left of it ...... You need to find another car preferably same make & model & make sure it's inland away from the sea Ha ha , it is sad you got ripped off , that's why you always Check b4 you buy It's called ' Buyer's Beware ' please don't be a plonker Good Luck ! from Melbourne Australia 🦘🐨🐊

Great video, you where bringing it back to Northern Ireland not Ireland

Fantastic achievement. I watched it all. Credit to you

Greetings from Dromore Co Down. Great movie lads. Your video makes me want to do silly things, like try and daily a classic mercedes estate. In time my S211 will become a classic.
