Introduction
From fluid leaks, to aged suspension components, to rust there are many items, big and little, to check when you are considering buying a W123 Diesel. You're very unlikely to find one without any maintenance or repair items to address so don't let this deter you. Simply understand that knowledge is power when it comes to buying an older used car. You'll better know what you're getting in to and you may have some better wiggle room when negotiating price.
Please note that the vehicle used as an example in this guide is a non-turbo diesel engine. The majority of this guide will apply to turbo diesel and gas engine cars as well. However, be sure to do some research about the key differences before going shopping!
