Help CHoosing: C123 vs C126 vs RL 107
Hey all,
I started looking for an R107 last year as a fun summer car, recently I got super hot for a 500/560SEC and before triggers are pulled I figure I should also consider the C123 which I saw heading into work this morning. Previously I had been looking at BMW 2002 and 635s but I'd prefer an automatic for the **** traffic I spend a fair amount of time in. Also I remember my Dad's BMW 2002 when I was a kid and it was rusting 3 years in.
As a daily, or semi-weekly summer driver is one of the MBs vastly more reliable than the other? I am not handy but there is a shop that specializes in classic German cars near me in NYC, it's called Rheinland Motors.
I should also mention for I would do a Euro bumper and 3pc Aero wheels on the SEC, I like the stock C123, for R107 I prefer Euro bumper but it's not an absolute must.
thanks for the input
