W124

In this body was produced a car that is widely known as the "bandit five-hundredth". But now we will consider the "Mercedes 124 E300", which is outwardly almost the same as the "500th". And you can evaluate its appearance by looking at the photo below.

This motor worked in tandem with a 4-speed "automatic", which was adopted in the S-class models. And its distinctive feature was the differential Gleason-Torsen.

It is interesting, but about the car "Mercedes E300" was written in a magazine called Road & Track. The car was called a sedan, which rides like a Ferrari Testarossa. And this is a good compliment, because it is well known that this Italian model is one of the most successful among all that was only released by the concern from Maranello. By the way, even the "three hundredth" AMG Hammer had an improved suspension, 17-inch alloy wheels and additional spoilers (both front and rear).
