Private seller offers a stunning 1979 Mercedes-Benz 300D sedan. This car is finished in "Caledonia Green" color code # 867. Caledonia Green was a special order factory color and is considered to be one of the rarest Mercedes colors of all time. It is beautifully complimented with a Parchment MB tex interior. "Tex" is a combination of leather and vinyl that Mercedes has used since the 1950's and still does today. This car was born on September 22, 1978 in Stuttgart Germany (that is the official date of completion as per Mercedes-Benz Europe). Showing 127,100 kilometers which is equal to 78,976 miles...very low miles for a diesel engine. Just pre-heat the glow plugs with a turn of the key and the car fires right up every time without hesitation. Engine runs smooth and is plenty powerful. The 4-speed automatic transmission shifts great as well. The transmission knows when to downshift going up a grade without requiring a change in throttle position. Even the kick down switch located beneath the throttle works as it should. Very well optioned featuring a host of power options...even the 4 power windows work, radio and antenna work great as do the interior lights. Recent maintenance includes a new radiator, new thermostat, 4 brand new tires, new hood insulation pad, newer battery, new master cylinder and brake job plus more! Always maintained to the highest specification. Registered with the Mercedes-Benz Club of America. Clear PA title. Never in an accident. If you have been searching for a 300D...this is it! Look no further. You will not find a better running car with a more unique and attractive color combination. Achieve well over 30 miles per gallon in style and enjoy the durability of a Mercedes-Benz diesel...as they used to say "Engineered like no other car in the world" Please call 267-438-2542 with all inquiries.
