The newer M112/M113 and even the M119 engines are amazingly fuel efficient. Foe example I owned a CLK320 that would routinely deliver 30 MPG on the highway and a 400E that would get 27-28 on the highway.
Both of the above cars would match or exceed the "economy" of a Diesel powered W123 in cruising mode - both have about twice the horsepower capability for driving fun.
