Researched and written with the full co-operation of the factory, here in definitive detail is the story of the Mercedes-Benz W124-based range – a series of models that included saloons, estates, coupés, convertibles, lwb cars, and special chassis units that enabled coachbuilders to work their art. Building on the W123 formula that had created a best-seller, the 124-series models were an immediate success. They went through two major face-lifts before the last of the breed was killed off in 1997, and remain as popular as ever as a modern classic for enthusiasts.
the detail and especially the behind-the-scenes pre-production images give it real depth. Its easy-to-read prose is a bonus, too. - Classic & Sports Car --- The level of detail and research that went into this book's creation is amply demonstrated by the incredibly comprehensive appendices listing every single change year by year, engine specifications, colour and trim details and chassis numbers related to production changes. - Classics Monthly --- FOND memories of the W124's elegance, solidity and comfort are present in this detailed and extensively researched book. - Auto Express --- The comprehensive final appendices, covering range details, engine specs, colour and trim options, chassis number and production figures, are nothing less than a three-pointed star nerd heaven. - Classic Car Weekly --- full of handy facts and reference charts including paint and trim combinations. - Classic Motoring --- This is a wonderfully thorough, superbly researched and brilliantly illustrated account of the gestation, launch, production and evolution of what became of the E-Class - Octane (UK)
