Vehicle Description
This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 300CD is a wish list kind of car when
you're looking for a premium vintage cruiser classic. It's coming
off 27 years of long-term ownership, and we're told it had only one
previous owner before that. So you are going to see quite a nice
level of care and preservation on this coupe. Even the shining
silver paint is believed to be the factory application. And we love
the look of the clean lines on this rarely-see hardtop coupe. Good
care means the blue interior continues to look stylish, the
transmission shifts smoothly all the way into overdrive, and the
full independent suspension has the right athletic yet supple feel.
And of course, the turbodiesel powerhouse is sought-after around
for being one of the most steadfast hearts to ever hit the road. So
take some extra time looking into this classic Mercedes hardtop
that continues to be both practical and impressive.

This is a very cool classic to find. It was the final year of the
Mercedes W123, and so it means the classic design has the best
evolution of the series. That's why you can spot little
differences, like the later Becker radio. Plus, the turbocharger on
the diesel really awakened the hardy powerhouse on these later and
premium coupes. So to have such a well-preserved car coming from
long-term care tells you that this is the kind of special car you
may never have the opportunity at again. Call today!!!
