Vehicle Description
The Atlanta Showroom is offering this 1975 Mercedes Benz 300D for
sale. This MB has been cared for the by the current owner the last
12 years. Turn the key to �on' and wait for the orange glowplug
light to come off. A moment of silence for Rudolf Diesel, as it's
been called. The car can be started as soon as the light comes off.
This five-cylinder oil burner transmits power to the rear wheels
via a four-speed automatic, the only transmission available in
US-market w123 300Ds. As with other Mercedes' of this vintage the
gear shifts are rather crisp. When you do get it up to speed it's
very stable. It rides smooth like any Mercedes should and the
steering, commanded through an almost comically large wheel, is
precise. Mercedes doesn't build cars the same way they used to in
this era, anybody who owns a w123 will tell you that. They are
solid, reliable, relatively easy to mend and safe even without the
latest safety gizmos. With the growing enthusiast base these cars
have gathered they are quickly entering classic car territory,
making the w123 300D the best of both worlds. Options include:
AM/FM radio, CD, power steering, power brakes, power locks, diesel,
seat belts, vinyl interior, and radial tires. To view the car in
greater detail, including 100+ HD photos and HD video, please visit
