What was the last year a Mercedes 230E was built?
One such was the owner of this 230E, a 1986 model and one of the last ever built, who demanded a W123 despite its replacement already being on sale. It’s a petrol-engined 230E model, delivered to a independently wealthy socialite in Johannesburg, South Africa.
How much power does a Mercedes 230E have?
The 230E starts on the button and the immediate impression is of how smooth it is. The automatic transmission is perfectly suited, too. There’s not a great deal of power from the 2.3-litre engine, with just 134bhp on tap, but it really does feel unburstable.
How does a Mercedes Benz feel on the road?
It really does feel as though you could cover many hundreds of miles in one sitting, especially on long, sun-baked South African roads. Unfortunately, we were on the tight test circuit at Mercedes-Benz World, not its ideal habitat. In fact it’s as smooth as any modern car, with possibly even better ride comfort because of the soft suspension.
Where is the revcounter on a Mercedes 230E?
Ahead are lovely simple gauges, the large central speedometer flanked by a revcounter on the right (it’s redlined at 6,000rpm but there’s little point in pushing it that far) and a collection of oil and economy gauges to the left. The 230E starts on the button and the immediate impression is of how smooth it is.
