Kent takes you along on his super fun to drive W108. You will not believe how smoothly the manual transmission shifts and how well the car performs with a rear end installed from a 280SEL 4.5 V8. With great shocks and recently rebuilt front end I don't think you can find any sedan of that vintage from any manufacturer that is more fun to drive than this car. And this car REALLY does look like a Mercedes Benz!!! Be sure to check out Kent's other video showing close ups of the engine in this car: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DE6acp... This is just one part in big multi part series Kent is doing on OLD Mercedes Benz. 20 years ago many of these models did not seem that “old.” but now they suddenly are and some are becoming quite valuable. Kent will focus on what he feels are the affordable classics. Other than maybe a walk-a-round he will be not doing much on the likes of the 300SL gull wings and roadsters. He hopes to cover the Pagoda W113s in some of these videos. As this is being filmed in 2014 even these will not be “affordable” in the not too distant future.
