For sale is a 1984 Mercedes Benz 230E. This is what is referred to as a gray market car. The car was bought in 1984 in Stuttgart, Germany while on a family vacation. At the time we were told that it had been an executive's car and it was purchased with around 1000 miles on it. It was driven around Europe for our family vacation, then shipped back to the United States, where it made Cleveland its new home. For over the last 30 years, this car has been owned by the same family and has had barely any miles put on it. The car currently has slightly over 30k original miles on it, which for a car of this age is extremely rare. It has been garage kept, started and driven short distances in the summer only, then put up on jacks and covered for the winter. I don't think the car has ever seen a raindrop on US soil. Other than routine oil changes, this car has had no issues. Everything is original, including the tires. Because the car was imported, we were forced to change the headlights to a "American Approved" configuration and it was changed over to miles instead of kilometers. Basically, the car came with square headlights and we were forced to buy the round headlights to be allowed to import it. The car comes with the current front and rear lights, plus the original front and rear lights in a box. From my understanding, the US changed that requirement shortly after we imported the car. The only issue that I know of is when a small paint can was dropped on the hood about 10 years ago. I tried to take pictures of it to show the scuff. There doesn't appear to be a dent, just a scuff. Other than that, this car is as new with no rust and flawless paint. I don't think the seats have ever been sat in without the included seat covers. This is a very clean car which deserves a home with someone that appreciates it. The car runs and drives with no issues or accident history. I would have no issues taking this car across the country. This car is an automatic and has a powered sunroof. It does not have a/c. Everything else on the car is pretty much manual (windows, mirrors, etc.) The doors are manual, but they entire car can be locked from the outside driver's door. This car is available to be seen prior to auction close on the West side of Cleveland. We can assist with shipping this car the best that we can, but ultimately it is the buyer's responsibility.
