I never could find any when I was autocrossing my 84s...280e euro and 500 sec.

the w123 seems with "stock" engine quite stable, a little prone to understeer, the w115 feels imo a tad better balanced.

i am looking to swap both, but since i already am building on a touring i already got the thickest in front, and the rear seems like an easy swap.

a car prone to drifting doesnt seem like a huge problem either, my current daily is kicked out in every turn possible (when roads are clear ofc) it behaves good, but a bit to much body-roll
