immediately became the benchmark by which medium-sized car models were
judged in the late 1980s due to its engineering excellence and high
build quality. There was a model to suit every would-be-buyer, from the
taxi driver through the family motorist and on to those who were willing
and able to pay for luxury and performance. The book covers: Design,
development and manufacture of all models of W124 including estates,
