1985 W123 TURBO DIESEL. Vehicle is in very good condition. Paint is a strong 7 out of 10,
paint is not original paint, but very good quality. Seats have no tears, headliner is in excellent condition.
Dash is in very good shape with the exception of crack near right speaker (see picture). Passenger window has a few scratches on the inside.
Door panels are in excellent condition. First aid kit is complete
ready to administer care to any boo-boo. The transmission shifts properly.
The engine is strong and runs at the proper temperature.
The oil pressure is within specs. The engine immediately fires to life. Trunk (or boot) for my European friends is perfect with no rust and includes spare and original tool pouch. All lights, cruise control, air conditioner,
electric mirror and windows function properly.
