That's too bad, 'cause the 1985 123-series MB was great car, IE: easy to
work on!

I owned a 1964 190Dc and a '74 240D that both rusted away. In both cars, the
drive line was bullet proof. In contrast, my 1987 300D 124 series was zinc
coated and damn near rust proof, while the rest of the car gave me
continuous problems.

93-100S....rust proof.
