The Best Car Ever Made? Probably. The Mercedes-Benz W124 Was The Most Influential Modern Era Car.

A full review and test drive of a well kept Mercedes 300T, the S124 wagon platform of the venerable W124 series. Itâ€™s safe to say that the W124 was groundbreaking, and set the standard for cars that would come afterward. Itâ€™s quite possibly - probably, even - the best car ever built.

But itâ€™s not infallible - to own one is to own a very drivable classic, but it wonâ€™t happen without maintenance and repairs - this is an incredible, durable, and reliable machine - but itâ€™s meant to be serviced and driven forever, not something to be thrown away after 10 to 15 years, like many cars made today.

No matter what, the car is a legend, and the rewards of ownership far exceed the cost of having one around. Itâ€™s a car that wins your heart, and becomes part of the family.
