Background W123 is the internal chassis-designation Mercedes-Benz used for their executive line of cars, manufactured between 1976 and 1985. Within the W123 chassis, as it typical for Mercedes of the era, cars were named after their engine size, fuel type, and chassis sub-type. Engine size was designated by its displacement in liters.

So a 280E has a 2.8 liter inline-6 cylinder engine. Fuel type was indicated by the trailing letter after the number. 'D' stands for diesel. 'E' stands for Einspritzung, which refers to fuel-injection on the gas engines.

If there is no 'E' or 'D' then it is a carbureted gas engine. Chassis sub-type is designated with another trailing letter after the number. 'C' stands for coupe. 'T' stands for touring, otherwise known as an estate or station-wagon. If there is no 'T' or 'C' then it is a 4-door sedan.

A few examples: • A 240D is a 2.4 liter diesel engine sedan • A 300TD is a 3.0 liter diesel engine station wagon • A 200T is a 2.0 liter carbureted gas engine touring/station-wagon model that was not available in the U.S. It's good to remember that 'TD' does not stand for turbo diesel and instead designates the touring models.

Afterwards, the OM617 3.0 liter diesel engines in U.S. W123's were turbocharged (in other parts of the world a turbo charger remained an option). The OM616 2.4 liter diesel engines in the U.S. 240D remained naturally aspirated throughout their entire run.

There were also several gas engines across the range.
