RE: engine wiring harness problem

Stay away? Not necessarily. Find out if the harness has already been replaced. If it has, you're good to go. If it hasn't, you could use that as a bargaining point in price. Save an appropriate amount for future repairs.

Later model 124's benefit from four valve technology that significantly increase engine power. For example, an '89 300E with the 3.0 liter engine produces 177 HP (SAE). The '93 300E's 3.2 liter engine boosts that by another 40 HP.

And since you're in Norway, maybe the lower seasonal temperatures contribute to less degradation of the wiring harness.
