My 43 Dodge when cold and warm out two pumps of the gas and it starts right up When hot tap the starter pedal instantly starts Everything is to speck Why people convert older cars to 12 volt makes no sense to me When set up properly they start easily! Went out in the garage when it was 28 degrees pulled the choke out pumped pedal 3 times cranked a little longer hasn’t been started in a week and fired right up. John

For me, the pinnacle of mas-produced cars was the W126. The W123 was close, but the larger size of the W126 makes it just a bit better. The was a great fan of the 5 cyl diesel until they made diesel fuel cost more than gas. The economy of a diesel-powered luxury car went away with that.
probably a good place to point out the difference between "Reliable" and " Durable". Your experience with MB not withstanding, Mercedes are the peak of "durable" cars than becasue of their complexity may not be very reliable. Of course Mercedes with neglected maintence are very expensive to make reliable. "Nothing is more expensive than a cheap mercedes."That’s my saying a cheap Mercedes is the most expensive one you will ever get I have a lot of experience with the 124 and 126 chassis and the M 100 6.3 109 chassis awesome cars.

Mercedes Benz from the 80s to 1995 are the best most reliable cars I have owned and worked on Million milers Have seen 3 with over a million miles with regular maintenance Reliable as air Anything after 96 is cookie cutter garbage Cheaper materials inside they rust real bad And don’t even get me started on BMWs John
