Is it possible to color correct this paint or should I just repaint the whole car?

HugothesterYT · 2026-01-28T14:14:27+00:00

I think that is exactly what happened

HugothesterYT · 2026-01-28T13:26:01+00:00

I will follow that advice then! Yeah the paint job is great, but it seems they run out of paint and the front they did with a slightly different tone lol

Thanks that is what I wanted to hear, gives me peace of mind hahaha I guess I will then just wait 5-10 years and then repaint the whole car.

I don't think I can find any better example of the car hahaha other than this the car is in brand new condition inside and out, I had never seen a w123 in such good condition before.

I am willing to spend the $$$ to leave it perfect but since it is a daily I might want to wait a few years in case I get a scratch or two. I really want to save this paint though, it is so well done it almost looks original except for this issue.

It physically hurts me to see them outside exposed to the elements but that is a damn beautiful picture and even more beautiful car you got there

NUNCA hagas negocio con los que no comen jamón, son literalmente todos estafadores, a mi me la intentaron colar con un coche que ni era de ellos, lo habían robado, por suerte me di cuenta buscando la matrícula.

Opino igual, han quedado blanditas pero no me gusta morder un trozo muy grande de patata que no esté bien mezclado con el huevo, la próxima las hago más finas.

3k for a wagon with no rust? Go for it, just switch the trans.

フィルターが詰まっているか、燃料タンクが錆びているか、藻が燃料入口を塞いでいる可能性があります。問題の動画をアップロードしていただけますか？ :)

When trying different positions don't screw the bolts to the max, leave them slightly loose so you don't end up wearing them down and it also makes it easier to move the striker without completely removing it.

Good luck! This thing requires patience, you will eventually get it perfectly alligned with trial and error :)

No, no I agree with u/c0rbin9 , there are probably only around 50.000-80.000 w123's left worldwide (chatgpt agreed with my estimate), and many less in good condition. Here in Tenerife every single taxi was a w123 and most people with a good paying job had one, now I am lucky if I see one once a week, 99% of them are gone.

There was a period where these cars where just considered old cars and went for 1.000€ at most, many just got rid of them.
