  • The presentation of the 123 coupe was held in June 1977. While the coupe of / 8-series were stylistically closely followed the sedan, the new models 230 CE, 280 C and 280 CE were 230 C, clearly independent. The opposite of the sedan 85 millimeters shorter wheelbase gave the car together with the lower roof and steeply sloping windshield and rear window a squat appearance.
    The vehicle safety has been improved over the coupe of the previous series: Together with the adopted by the Limousine crumple zones gave the stiffened roof frame structure with high-strength roof pillars and reinforced doors an even more stable safety passenger cell. Engines, suspension and brakes were identical to the sedan.
    With the equipment, the two-door versions of the upscale versions of the four-door flagship models oriented 280 and 280 E. This included for all three coupes rectangular broadband halogen headlamps, chromed air intake grille in front of the windshield (to September 1982) and chrome trim under the tail lamps.
    Already in the autumn of 1977 was added to the 300 CD (80 PS / 59 kW) and thus a diesel coupe, which was, however, produced exclusively for the US market. The diesel initiative had among other objectives, the average fuel consumption (fleet consumption) to reduce all models of Mercedes-Benz automobiles in the market of USA. After the limits for fleet consumption further tightened, the 300 CD in 1981 was replaced by the 300 CD Turbodiesel. Also this coupé with 92 kW power was not available for the European market, but triggered in the US, the model 280 CE from.
    The 230 C was established in 1980 replaced by 230 CE, the new M 102 engine with mechanical K-Jetronic fuel injection contributed 100 kW.
    In the summer of 1985, the mass production of C 123. ended Total 99 884 vehicles of this type originated from June 1977 to August 1985, of which 15,509 with a diesel engine.

      Jesus mercy! The worst ever music --IF you can call it that, rather than Assault-- ENOUGH TO TURN THE DAMN VIDEO OFF!!
      Having said that, yes, this is a fine car on a classic platform. Being a pragmatic guy, I never buy coupés; a turbo-diesel station wagon would be GRAND.

  • @dineshnalakakadadora3471

    ...........Kudos to you for maintaining this vehicle
    I have two cars benz w 115 and 123
    Both vehicles do not run very badly
    The w 115 car was the official car used by the world’s first prime minister
    My dream is to get those 2 cars running
    It is not easy
    The politicians of sri lanka have stolen the national economy and the whole country is in debt to the world
    The country is now being run by IMF and world aid
    Everything is taxed
    Just breathing is not taxed
    I have seen benz cars abandoned in some countries which are in the best condition
    Both my cars have about 60% damage to the bumper
    Recovery is difficult
    If you have the body of the w 115 or 123 cars in you possession, I would be grateful if you could provide me with the body of those cars.
    Also, if there is any possibility to help me in making these two cars, I would be grateful
    Sorry if there was a mistake……
    I am also a person who loves benz cars…………………

    The intro still shots... are of a RHD car that you have photo-shopped to look like a LHD. Why bother? The curious pull handle, below the air vent, to the left of the steering wheel, in your photo.... is the parking brake. RHD cars have this instead of the foot pedal arrangement of the LHD models.

      not possible ,they didn´t wanted that to happen in the 70´s ,today it´s a lie, what is safe in a nuclear reactor,almost every electric power consumed in europe come from nuclear plants, hidro-engine was left to develop ,at the time petrol was the answer for everything and today even more, the most ecologic car in the world is the diesel land-rover defender, it as a life of 50 years while electric cars are garbage made of plastic wich will polute the enviroment till the end of humanity, this study was developed by the top engeniers in the study of materials non degradable also the ones that study the quality of the air(enviroment)
