Currently doing a 1990 420SEL...has timing chain noise cold.....211,000 miles....Did all steering to chassis bushes last week and lower ball joints. Drives great and quiet too.
Would not think the 177 hp of the 103 engine would be so bad though...my own '92 300E beats my friends warmed over 1984 VW GTi by several car lengths on the interstate ramp...Factory 0 to 60 is 7.9 seconds.
I've been servicing a 1991 300SEL for a while out of Texas...she says the mpg is about 22 to 24.....My 300 is 24.6 mpg on a run to Florida.
The weight of a 300SEL is 3322 lbs.
420SEL is 3520 lbs.
300E is 2948 lbs.
.You do the math.
