Description

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.

I have (personally) replaced a number of components on the car just so I had a starting place on condition.

New fan belts

New Michelin tires (Couple thousand miles, lots of tread left)

New voltage regulator

New upper and lower oil cooler lines PITA to change.

Numerous vacuum hoses

New Duracell AGM battery

New front brake sensors (Mercedes brand)

New radiator because I broke the nipple on the return line (original radiator will be included)

Rubber protector on rear bumper-drivers side needs some looking at

Any questions don't hesitate to ask, I've tried to be as honest about the car as I can

Any additional pictures needed just ask

I reserve the right to end auction early if sold locally.

I still drive the car so mileage may increase a little (not a daily driver for me).
