Eastern Shore Classic Cars is pleased to present this incredibly
well preserved 1985 Mercedes 300D Turbo Diesel with an
astonishingly low 96,294 original miles! Know internally at MB as
the W123, these models surpassed their predecessor, as the most
successful Mercedes, selling 2.7 million units before production
ended in the autumn of 1985 for the saloon/sedan versions. Notably,
it featured the first Turbo Charged Diesel engine offered in a
passenger car. The W123 gained the reputation of being well built
and highly reliable. Many taxi companies chose the W123, and they
were a common sight in Germany. Reaching 500,000 or 1,000,000 km
with only minor mechanical issues, was common with W123s used as
taxicabs. The fact that anything under 200,000 let alone under
100,000 miles like this one, is considered "low mileage" is
remarkable in and of itself. This fine example of the 300D Turbo
Diesel is presented in the light ivory exterior over Palomino
leather interior. This is a one family-owned car maintained by the
original owner. It has been garage kept and lovingly maintained
over the years. A family illness now forces the sale of the
vehicle. This is a rare survivor vehicle that has retained almost
all its OEM parts. A close examination of the pictures and video
will reveal no known rust and an interior of superior condition.
There are no visible tears in the leather and the carpets are in
excellent condition. There are no cracks in the dashboard. The
trunk is immaculate. It includes the original Becker radio. The
owner has maintained the service records for review. This is a rare
opportunity to acquire one of the most iconic Mercedes of the 80's
in near pristine condition. This classic MB is offered at a
reasonable 19,900 The vehicle is located in the Washington D.C.
