MB-124

The Mercedes-Benz W124 is a range of executive cars made by Daimler-Benz from 1984 to 1997. The range included numerous body configurations, and though collectively referred to as the W-124, official internal chassis designations varied by body style: saloon (W 124); estate (S 124); coupé (C 124); cabriolet (A 124); limousine (V 124); rolling chassis (F 124); and long-wheelbase rolling chassis (VF 124).From 1993, the 124 series was officially marketed as the E-Class.

The W 124 followed the 123 series from 1984 and was succeeded by the W 210 E-Class (saloons, estates, rolling chassis) after 1995, and the C 208 CLK-Class (coupés, and cabriolets) in 1997.

In North America, the W124 was launched in early November 1985 as a 1986 model and marketed through the 1995 model year. Pre-series production began at the beginning of November 1984, with press presentation on Monday, 26 November 1984 in Seville, Spain, and customer deliveries and European market launch starting in January 1985.

m119 5.0 v8 engine
The Mercedes-Benz M119 is a V8 automobile petrol engine produced from 1989 through 1999. It was available in 4.2 L; 5.0 L; and 6.0 L displacements. It was a double overhead cam design with 4 valves per cylinder and variable valve timing on the intake side. It was replaced by the 3-valve M113 starting in 1997.The M119 differed from the M117 in the following ways:

The engine block uses asbestos-free gaskets and has better oil flow
The cylinder head is now a 4-valve aluminium unit with dual overhead camshafts
The connecting rods are forged and enable cooling of the pistons with sprayed oil
The pistons are iron-coated cast aluminium
An improved vibration damper system is used
The aluminium oil pan has bolted-on oil baffles to prevent foaming of the engine oil
The intake camshaft timing is adjusted hydro-mechanically up to 20°:
0–2000 rpm — retarded for improved idle and cylinder scavenging
2000–4700 rpm — advanced for increased torque
4700+ rpm — retarded for improved volumetric efficiency
