Vehicle Description
This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 300D is part of the earned legacy of
ultra-robust German-engineered sedans. So when you can get a strong
turbodiesel classic that's also loaded with all the best features
(including a sunroof and cold-blowing A/C,) you'll soon realize
this is a truly affordable icon with everything you want.
The 300D is the right car for the classic market. It has the larger
engine of the diesel series, and a few more premium touches.
Mercedes was truly the king of understated style during this era
with its crisp lines that had smooth rounded edges. And the way the
rub strip runs like a nearly unbroken line as it goes down both
sides and wraps around the rear all highlights how straight the
panels are. It's a testament to both the build quality of a
Mercedes and the care that this sedan has received over the years.
And the factory-correct Smoke Silver Metallic paint even shows a
dignified gloss. The overall impression that you get is a sturdy
car that has an attractive but driver-ready style, and that's the
full theme of this diesel hauler.
Tan interiors have the premium kind of appearance you want in a
Benz. This MB-Tex upholstery is durable while being supple, and
there even appear to be good investments, like never front seat
covers. This has the space to be a practical classic, and family
and friends will happily come along for the ride because this
upholds the Mercedes reputation for premium motoring. That means
the best in comfort features, like cold-blowing air conditioning,
power windows, wood accenting, fold-down armrests, and a
sunroof.
Under the hood is what makes the 300D so desirable. The Mercedes
diesel motors are the true high mileage kings. They have one of the
best reputations for robustness in the industry. So while it's
unknown if the odometer reflects the full mileage, and the overall
appearance does look like it has been responsibly enjoyed, the way
this one fires up and runs so smoothly tells you it wants to uphold
its stature. This 3.0-liter turbocharged unit seen here was one of
the most powerful versions they ever offered for the series. These
have never been speed demons, but you already knew that. Their true
value is that this was built to be an effortless cruiser. That's
why you have cruise control, power steering, and a smooth-shifting
four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive.
And because this was up to the autobahn standards, you also have
the confidence of a fully independent suspension and four-wheel
power disc brakes.
You'll be impressed with this Benz, right down to the look of the
undercarriage. So you may add some details like more modern tires
or the latest stereo, but overall, you already can see the value
and fun of a premium Mercedes turbodiesel loaded with all the best
features. So if you're looking for a classic that still is ready
for your daily life, don't miss this deal. Call today!!!
