Designed by Mercedes's head of design Bruno Sacco, the W124 range immediately became the benchmark by which medium-sized car models were judged in the late 1980s due to its engineering excellence and high build quality. There was a model to suit every would-be-buyer, from the taxi driver through the family motorist and on to those who were willing and able to pay for luxury and performance.The book covers: Design, development and manufacture of all models of W124 including estates, cabriolets and the stylish coup range, Engines and performanceSpecial editions and AMG models, Buying and owning a W124 today Review: It is indeed “complete”! - Thoroughly researched, well written, lots of photos and other illustrations. Review: Great read! - Having recently acquired a W124 coupe to restore mechanically and hang onto as a daily driver, this was a great read, and gave me a sense of the rich history of these cars. Lots of great information and advice here, particularly around the need to find an independent specialist both for cost and knowledge reasons. When these cars are in top running condition the driving experience (especially on the M104 24v engine) is something else. Overall an excellent book!

A must for W124 fans
The best book on the subject by far. Some small inaccuracies but nothing that would warrant a mention.

It is just what it says on the cover: The complete story of the W124
Well written, well presented, some lovely illustrations and more facts and figures than anyone could reasonably expect. Non-nerd, as long as they have a passing interest in the car, will enjoy it as well. Just about worth the money so is well deserving of its five stars.
