Mercedes W123 is one of models which have built a modern brand’s reputation. New Mercedeses are far from that legendary quality and reliability of 1970s and 1980s, but they are still are comfortable and use a legend of classic W123, W124, W126 and W116 which we already have on our site. But here we will talk about this green slammed Mercedes W123 from Great Britain.
If you are loving Mercedes W123, own such one and want to build a cool tuning project and seeking for inspiration – probably you are in a right place. Because this car is built by simplest recipe. And in the same moment you can get a maximum result. It even can cost not all money if the world, if your car is in a good condition. If you would need some trim, you budget can fly to the space.
So, if your W123 is in a good condition you can use even some pre-owned parts. For example, you can use original but larger wheels from later or more expensive Mercedes. Or you can make custom 3-piece wheels with original renters and wide polished outer rims. Even such custom made wheels would be cheaper than original wheels from Rotiform, Vossen, BBS and other. But your custom wheels will be from same era as the car. It’s pretty important if you want to build really qualitative tuning project.
Air suspension is pretty expensive modification. But in the same moment it’s the best suspension tuning for your project. You would get all possibilities of fitment adjusting. Else you will get so comfortable and soft ride which you have never had before. And it would be at new larger wheels. So, some lowering kit or coilers will fit you as well, but just remember what is the best. If you are loving how slammed Mercedes W123 looks you need an air suspension.
It’s a shame that Mercedes lost this old school charm and new models are different. New Mercedes gives you all possible technologies. But it’s already not same cars which we have come to love.
