Mercedes-Benz W126 300SE on the Nurburgring. BTG: 10:21, I can take some corners a bit faster but due to the very soft suspension and crap tires I couldn't go much harder, also there was an accident so I had to slow down untill I passed it.
I think not a bad time for such a vehicle.
Listen to the sweet purr of that engine! I have two of these cars and they are AWESOME! I absolutely adore them. Drove one of them across the U.S. from Los Angeles to Virginia beach in 2003 and it was the most comfortable, enjoyable, trouble free ride. As long as I'm alive, I will always have a W126 300SE in my garage. The W123 & W126 share the title of Best Sedan Ever Built. And I don't see -- with the way these car companies build plastic shit-boxes nowadays -- them ever losing that title.
Agreed. Today's cars are disposeable throwaways
I agree, I will never sell my 300se.
basicly the same moter thats in a1973 280e ?they run so well you have to drive them to describe it..
This is not racing. This is sailing...
...well, very fast and powerful but still sailing!
10 years after this is still awesome
This was THE most comfortable Nurburgring lap ever, especially carousel hahaha
Just love that sweet sound of the M103
I like the sweet sound of m103 motor mine is a300SEL with five speed manual
Miss the sound of the m103. Both the m103 and m104 are amazing.
I really enjoyed this video ... nice to see an old classic getting a workout and I was impressed by your driving ... smooth and fast !!!
Love this clip. Thanks bro. Who needs to go to the opera? The M103 sings.
That’s the correct way to treat your 30 year old classic W126! Amazing.
That poor guy on the bike at 7:45 getting passed by a 20 year old S class!
Love the sound of German Performance at work, car appears to move through out the track effortlessly.
Man what a beautiful sounding M103!!! Unfortunately I can't open mine up much around here, too many cops in GA
Awesome, love the sound of the M103. I wish I lived there so I could take my w201 out for a spin.
Fullwit - When I step on the throttle...It turns heads. Its all motor, you can barely hear the exhaust.
Finally some really good driving👍(Never seen such a smooth carussel haha)
Nice Video, the 300SE is the most Economical W126 that was made. Someone knows how to drive. :) But I still like the way the cars drive too. As specially with the hydraulic shocks on the rear. They handle beautifully for a large vehicle.
You're welcome mate ! I also own a w126, but it's a 300 SEL. I love that car so much.
Have a nice weekend
I love this video, I find it mesmerizing. That ole girl is workin' hard, just like the day it left the factory.
Much respect to you. I gave mine a fairly big boot around today on some British 'A" roads, for the first time, and I certainly understand what you mean about soft suspension.
This is a mighty nice car and a very good & friendly driver!
The mighty M103 sings it's magic symphony. Best sounding inline 6 ever. Best engine amongst the 126s gas versions. A 126 is something beyond just driving.
Nice driving. I got a 300E. The M103 is a very good engine.
The mighty M103 sings its magic symphony! I am the proud owner of a 300SEL since recently. She sounds the same.
i used to have this car. best thing ive ever owned in my life.
Sehr komfortabel im Karussell :D vielleicht jage ich meinen 280se dieses jahr auch mal über die nordschleife
@TheMatadorex Motor, Reifen,.... alles im originalstand ;)
2 metric tons wallowing around the berg
Lovely car!! When cars were truly built well.
Would've loved to see the speedo though..
Alex Munyoki check this out..reminds me of your lovely machine
Haha!!!!!
great sound.
very good engine
cool man!!!And your Benz coolllll
Nice screaming run in the 300SE! :))Makes me wonder how much of a difference would be showing if a 420SE were to be run in comparision to this car?
+Vee6watchman
Not much, if you rev the m103 enough it is almost as fast as 420
+Vee6watchman I want to know this too!!
or a 560sel
i think you should select gears manually to prevent the gearbox from shifting unnecessarily much.
like when you let go of the throttle it upshifts then you push it down again and it kicks down, you could've just hold it in that gear and it wouldnt have changed at all.
just saying cus when you push the throttle so it revs out longer on the gear and then let go of the throttle before it upshifts it throws the gear in with a massive slam. not the best treatment, still nice driving.
Sorry, I forgot to say that the 300SE is the most economical petrol model that was made. My bad.LOL. :)
Das zeigt doch mal wieder was für geniale Autos Mercedes zu der Zeit gebaut hat...ist das wirklich alles Serie? Also noch die 1. Stoßdämpfer, 1. Federn und auch die 1. Fahrwerksgummis? Noch dazu, mit Schaltgetriebe wär mehr drin gewesen, garantiert...:P
good sound!
So smooth!!!
Just to clarify: IMO you can clearly hear the difference between the M103 and the M110.^^
My 1989 Mercedes Benz 300SE can reach a top speed of 220-230 kph (even though it weighs just shy of 1.8 tons) and drives better than most new cars I've driven and it will be thirty years old next year (I maintain it myself very well). In thirty years most new cars will be salvaged into toaster ovens (and poor quality ones at that) and sheet metal roofing. My parents just recently bought a brand new Shitrolet Colorado Z71 (2.8 Isuzu diesel) and the f***ing door handle fell off after one month....американское дерьмо
sounds like automatic transmission... is it?
Hi !
Are you the owner of that car ? I just want to tell you that the driver is excellent, because taking a w126 on a race isn't easy to manage !
What engine are you running ? M110 ?
Nice video !
شكرا يا مثنى على فشت الغل 🙂🙂
Ganz nett den Stern in den Kurven hüpfen zu sehen, aber die Paradedisziplin eines W126 ist die Nordschleife nicht gerade. Auch müht sich der dreiliter mit der Karosse doch sehr ab. Aber nichts für ungut.
whats a boat doing on this track?
M103 wailing its heart out. There is no replacement for the 'real' Mercedes-Benz of yesteryear. New models are plastic-crap, lame infotainment nightmares with LED interior lights, plastic black piano finished junk.
الخلل الأول لم يتم تصوير السياره من الخارج
الخلل الثاني لم يتم تصوير مؤشر السرعه .
senti che motore!
@fikri8881 yep
M103
Poor old girl. .
