Diesel

This is a great example of a well-kept classic. The body is in great shape with NO RUST, DENTS, OR SCRATCHES. When I first bought this benz I had it repainted due to oxidation because I just wanted a good looking daily driver. The paint is close to the original color but they didn't get it exactly the same...it's a little darker than original. This baby cranks right up and runs, drives, and shifts like a champ. No knocking of the engine...PURRS LIKE A DIESEL SHOULD! The car has 405,000+ miles but the mercedes garage where I get it tuned says it's had a new crate motor dropped in it at some point...I guess that explains why it runs so well. You can go 80mph no problem on the highway with no rumbling or shaking at all...it does have a small oil drip...but all of these w123's do. The HEAT AND A/C WORK GREAT as well as the aftermarket cd player and the power sunroof. The brakes are pretty new and work good...but they are squeaky. The interior is in great shape with the exception of a tear down a seam in the driver's seat. The wood grain looks great with the exception of a chip and couple cracks around the shifter. NO DASH CRACKS. The tires are good and still have lots of life and I just had the car tuned up at a Mercedes garage so the new owner could just get in and go. I just made a 500 mile round trip drive last week and the car was awesome! The front passenger window and the rear driver's side window don't work...I haven't looked into it though. If you're close feel free to give me a call at 864-590-0125 to schedule a time to come look at it and drive it....or feel free to call me with any questions or concerns you may have. If you live far away...fly in and drive home or have it shipped to you, I'll be more than happy to cooperate with your arrangement. Happy bidding! I have this vehicle for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
