Default Bonkers Benz Diesel with Scania Turbo!!

This is fookin cool IMO, its an old skool Merc W123 Wagon Diesel with a Scania turbo bolted to it... IIRC its had very little other supporting mods but seems to be doing the business.

They really are one of the greatest cars ever built those w123's.a guy by me has one in beige,but it's a bit gay with a big BIODIESEL badge on the back.my uncle had the 3litre petrol 7 seater estate years ago when they were new,bout 82/83 and I remember coming past the margam windsock on the m4 early hours of the morning,car 7 up as well and the speedo nailed at 140mph!!!!fucking awesome cars!!!!

The old girl had a 190e 2.0l petrol and that refused to die as well,I left it 4 months once without starting it and it went on the button,no booster pack or fuck all.absolutely everything still worked perfectly on it too!!

Very cool,solid as a tank cars! With beautiful classic lines and modern comforts.

I have a 123 230e and just got hold of a 114 280e with a dead engine!
Hmmm??? Turbo power!!!!!(",)
