I can see why Mercedes put a giant analogue clock instead of a tachometer for the 1st diesel model. Because you will need it to time how long it will hit 100 😂
I used to own a 300E 12v 4-Matic. And what a car it was. It *did* consume a bit of gas, but it more than made up for it with excellent comfort, driveability and good power when it counted. Mine was a fully kitted out 1987 model, with electric everything. It had the following accessories (which was bonkers for an 80's car): Electric windows, all dors Electric seat adjustment, front. This included the head-rests. Electric sunroof. Two-tone horn, with a selector switch. Level adjustment for the headlights. Heated seats Two-way climate control, with AC. Central locking with a remote. A few of these accessories are still optional today, but many has since become standard on today's cars. It really showed how premium Mercedes was back in the 80's.
time comes from specs i believe. you could see on 300e it skidded a bit before gripping, for instance, not properly representative. I think the video is meant to display the profile of the acceleration, not so much the proper 0-100
Mercedes 200D,220,240,250D is the same engine block 2.2 L not 2L. And it is the oldest engine block that is still used today, of course modified but the basics are the same.It is the same with a gasoline engine, the marking is not necessarily the correct cubic capacity. Second, these are the models for the American market, the models for the German and European markets are powerful, they have more horse power.
This car is pure nonesense in todays standards. So many useless engines: 2.0d, 2.5d, 3.0d, 2.5dt, 3.0dt. Today one 2.0 TDI 200 ps outrun them all and with huge GAP. Gasoline: 2.0, 2.3, 2.6!!, 2.8!!!, 3.2, 3.6, 4.2, 5.0, 6.0?!?!. Today one 2.0 tsi 280 ps in the passat (excellent EU version) outrun them all. I can imagine how many costs the whole offer generated. Pure nonsense.
There were no as many regulation as today standards, also innovation and power was what made the diference betwen brands and models, even more on luxury cars, where exotic engines and performance made you "more important" or "better" than everyone else, no matter at what cost. Now every manufacturer wants to sell their cars in the simplest way, looking for the minimun requirements on safety and performance. I think innovation is the key on what cars were and what cars are right now.

I wouldve used a calender as a speedometer. Way more accurate for that diesels.
538k km on the 300d
272k miles on the 3.6 amg
They dont build them like a w124 any more
my uncle had 300d N/A with +600k km on clock :)
@@VikiGarage And I had 250D with 900k, 200D with 640K and two more 200D with 600k on both. Super reliable and well built cars. Cheap to maintain too.
I had a few- my mechanic always said it was the last of the 'real' Mercs. After this the accountants overruled the engineers
Whats about w124 300ce?
@@yhanscicluna4587 It only the coupe body of the 300E
W124 is one the BEST MB series ever built... Bullet proof, Greman engineering @ it's PINNACLE... :)
Yeah time before greed starts creeping in to the german engineering
my friend has a 250d, completely beaten up, painfully slow but my god those car are really, really durable. 430K km and still running
200D, so slow you get a clock instead a tacho for all your 0-100 measurement needs XD

0:58 mistake on the 0-100 Time for de 250d 🤔
18,3s… can’t be worst than the 200d
Start from 0:43 to 0:58 = 15s
Very well done! Other TH-camrs should take note of your channel.
86-89 is not a E-Class.. E is the last years of production. II lift 93-95. Greetings
The last MB
I think only the last one is faster than my Ford powered W124 Coupe.
I had 300E 24V and I missed her 😢
i have an E280, 1993, 300ks, I'm the second owner. Its a keeper
Where are you from?
