Having no frills, being completely mechanical, and bare-boned, but still well appointed with luxury, the W123 hails from a time in which cars are just made differently. A time when technology does not equal to luxury. This review today is on this beautifully restored, and semi-preserved early model of the W123, the 1978 Mercedes Benz 300D non-turbo. Packing a non-turbo diesel engine from the 70s producing 80PS and 172Nm when new, you should not expect speed. Being a 1978 model, it is also yet to have ABS, and has a rudimentary version of today's automatic climate control. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
