You are bidding on a very rare 1983 Mercedes-Benz 300TD Turbo diesel wagon with rare third seat. Most sought out after wagon that seats seven people with ease and in very good shape overall with extremely low original and documented miles at 141K. Back in 1983. that was a well over $35k new. These cars are getting harder and harder to find and keep on going up in value and by all means. they are deserving! Excellent gas mileage and averages 35mpg and better. Astral Silver exterior with Navy blue leather interior that looks really nice. IT IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION. BE THE LUCKY ONE TO OWN IT! DEPOSIT WITHIN 24 HOURS VIA PAYPALCAN YOU PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE THE FUNDS TO BUY THE CAR AND NOT ONLY DREAM IT. I AM REFERRING TO THE NONE PAYING BIDDERS AND TIRE KICKERS THAT ARE WASTING MY TIME. EFFORT AND MONEY AS WELL AS OTHER BIDDERS TIME. EFFORT AND CHANCE. Fully loaded with power locks. power windows. power steering. factory installed third row seat. sun roof. cruise control. rear wiper. heat. AC. and Benz stereo sounds with CD changer. It has all service records. books. manuals. 2 keys. full size spare tire and jack. Runs. shifts and drives well. good Michelins with 90-95% tread remaining. Very well maintained since new by Benz and all service books and records are documented & stamped accordingly. Brakes were just completely redone (calipers. pads. rotors and hoses) by Precision Motorcars. a local independent Mercedes specialist who has serviced the car for the past 10 years or so (have all records as well as service booklet stamped from new). Was also serviced by Precision recently ("C" service and new MB battery) and last week I replaced the front lower ball joints. driveshaft carrier bearing and front shocks with original equipment Bilstein items. A small fortune was spent maintaining the car as I have maintenance receipts totaling well over $16k and here is a list of some of what was done to the car:^ “ C “ Service & Safety Check^ Tires^ Benz Battery^ All Brakes with Rotors. Calipers. Pads & Hoses/ Flex^ Front Lower Ball Joints^ Driveshaft Carrier Bearing^ Front Shocks^ Fuel Filters & Gas Tank Cleaning^ All New Glow Plugs^ All New Fluids^ Thermostat. Belts. Hoses & Sensors^ Full Tune Up with Oil & Filter^ Vacuum Valve & Elements for Locks^ Expansion Tank & Interior Switches^ Hydraulic Hose & Filter/ Fuel Lines^ Evaporative Canister & Hoses^ Front Shift Selector Bushing^ Linkage Pivot Bracket at Firewall^ Receiver-Drier/ Condenser & Suction Hose^ AC Hose Line^ Compressor^ AC & Power Steering Belts^ Oil Cooler & Cooler Line^ Alternator^ Front Exhaust Pipe^ Starter & Idler Arm Bushing^ Auxiliary Cooling Fan & Shroud^ Glow Plug Relay^ Hood Pad^ Adjust Valves^ Adjust Steering Gear Box^ Pressure Cover Gaskets^ Transmission Mount^ Rear MufflerThis is just to name a few and there is much more. The body and paint are very good and fine for a daily driver. There is a spot of rust on the RR wheel arch and a couple smaller spots here and there. however the 'bones' are good and solid. very sturdy with very clean undercarriage. The interior is very nice as you see from photos; seats are excellent without rips. tares or cracks. All inserts. panels. glass and carpeting are very good. Dash has minor cracks. The car has a newer Becker radio and Becker CD changer. The radio powers on but needs the security code inputted which I don't have and it could be on back of the unit if pulled out. This car does have the rare third seat option and the very rare factory roof rack cross bars in addition to a period Yakima ski rack which is no longer made. All exterior and interior lights work very well including clock. front and rear wipers as well as the horn. Heat and A/C work well. central locking system works. all windows except right front are working (not sure if it is a fuse or a switch that is needed for the RF window). Suspension is nice and tight. car tracks straight down the road. rear self leveling works well and the exhaust system is a newer. original MB replacement. Lastly. the car does have a block heater and it does work. This car will certainly serve someone well as a safe. reliable and classic daily driver. Fix the very minor cosmetics up or just use it as-is. In my opinion this classic looks awesome as it stands. Car is selling at no RESERVE with highest bid wins.
