Welcome to my second Mercedes replica attempt! This time I tried to catch the essence of the beloved W123. Over its nine year of production of 1976-1985, almost 2.7 million cars were sold, making it the best selling Mercedes ever, and commonly referred as, the best Benz ever made.

The package contains the following models:
Mercedes W123 200D 1978: Smallest diesel model, this car isn't famous for its speed.
Mercedes W123 200 1978 - Smallest petrol model, developing significantly more power than its diesel counterpart.
Mercedes W123 240TD 1978 - A diesel estate model, these were incredibly popular among watermelon vendors.
Mercedes W123 300D 1980 Taxi - The W123's were incredibly popular among taxi drivers as well.
Mercedes W123 230E 1981 - Mercedes badged the fuel injected petrol models with "E", making it the 230E a 2.3 litre fuel injected model.
Mercedes W123 280 1983 - The biggest petrol engine, but used with the good old carburetor.
Mercedes W123 300D Turbodiesel US 1984 - According to my information, this was the world's first turbocharged production car.
Mercedes W123 280CE 1982 - C marks Coupé, making this model a 2 door version, packed with the strongest petrol engine.
Mercedes W123 280E MFP Interceptor 4x4 - Who would be the best companion in the post-apocalyptic wasteland? Well, of course the W123! This model was fitted with 4WD drivetrain, huge tires, and a modified 2.8 litre I6 from the 280E, delivering 230 horsepower. Rockatansky approved.
