Do a search on the M104 engine and W124 type and you should find all the information required on this model.

Be sure the A/C is working properly and there are no problems with the evaporator.

Also check the condition of the rear self-levelling suspension. There should be no leaks at all and the car should ride smoothly.

Even though the S124 (W124T station wagon) has slighter more headroom, bigger brakes, and better weight distribution (almost 50/50) than the sedan, you should be aware that the wagon is noiser on the road.

Be sure to find an example with a full service history.
