The Mercedes-Benz W124 generation E-Class was built for the 1985 through 1996 model years on a platform that was engineered to be a cut above the rest. Compare the build quality of an 80s W124 Benz to a similar era Lexus, Audi, or even BMW…and you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the Stuttgart steamer. Find this 1989 […]
The W124 was arguably last well built and reliable sedan to come from the mad scientists in Stuttgart with classy styling, interiors built to last, and simplicity in function that in future generations was replaced by a dizzying array of electronic gizmos that constantly fail. The basic W124 was a good fam/lux sedan, but the 500E […]
The 300 designation was used on a number of Mercedes-Benz cars over the years, probably because it is a good size (in centiliters) for an inline-6 internal combustion engine, but today’s example doesn’t have gullwing doors or an exclusive pedigree…but what it does have is seating for 7 and a decent price tag for the […]
Finding a well cared for Mercedes W124 sedan is like striking gold.

The W124 Mercedes-Benz chassis was the first Benz given the official E-Class nomenclature and one of the finest examples of German engineering & build quality you can find. These cars are nearing 20 years old, but still feel/drive/look modern, something you wouldn’t say of most early ’90s American or Japanese luxury cars. Find this 1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 […]
Have you ever been so utterly fed up with a car that you write a Craigslist ad that is full of information that feels good to get off your chest, but does little to actually sell the car? Today’s seller makes the bold claim that his listing is, “the most honest ad ever.” Unfortunately, his […]
The venerable Mercedes W124 is the euro jack of all trades. The many body styles of this E-class can be found in use as taxis, limos, wagons, convertibles, sporty coupes, and super sedans. The diesel drivetrains of this era of Mercs have a loyal following because the engines run forever and rack up hundreds of […]
The W124 is widely considered the last over engineered Mercedes before accountants took over the reigns in Stuttgart. The W124 E-class drives like a modern car compared to it’s W123 predecessor which has a far more antique look and feel. These E-class cars have a strong following within the USA Benz community, but not so […]
The W124 generation Mercedes-Benz was released in 1984 as a replacement for the W123 model that was getting old. The W124 lasted until it was replaced by the googly-eyed W210 — but if you ask me, the square styling of the W124 has aged much better. Find this 1995 Mercedes-Benz E300 diesel offered for $4,100 near […]
