Up for sale is this great example of a 1985 Mercedes-Benz 300CD Turbo Diesel Coupe! It was a 1 owner when I purchased it back in November of 2011. At that time I was employed by a local Mercedes-Benz dealership where it was traded and then purchased by me. I had the car inspected and did some minor repairs to get it running in tip top shape. All my services were done by RBM of Alpharetta Mercedes-Benz. It has a new AC Compressor. Drive belts done recently. and oil change. Over the years. it's ran great and hasn't had need for any major work except basic maintenance. This car was sold originally by Atlanta Classic Cars in 1985 when they were in Decatur GA and has been in Georgia it's entire life. As a result it's rust free and body is in great shape!THE GOOD:AC blows cold and works great!Engine runs greatTransmission shifts smoothDrive Train has no issuesTachometer. Speedometer. and Oil and Temp gauges all workWheels were just refurbishedNew Center wheel caps (not included in photos but I have them)Right side power mirror worksPower windows and power sunroof all workPower antenna is adjustable and functioningEuro Lights upgradeTurn Signals all workParking break worksInterior lights operationalExcellent reception from aftermarket radio (I have the original radio)New speakersInterior:Seats have no signs of wear and tearDash has no cracksWood Grain has no cracks or damageExterior:Paint is faded on the hood and other areas around the car. I elected not to have the vehicle repainted because I decided to keep the car original. However. if you want to take this car from a solid 8 to 9 or 10 then repaint in would be in the step in that direction. Items that come with the car:Owners Manual and books. Service records before I had the vehicle and after. European front License PlateOriginal Window sticker MSRPTHE BAD:Items that don't work:Clock stop working recentlyCruise is intermittent (it works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't)What it needs:May need some tires in 15-20K miles; however. the car drives very nice and smooth around town and the highway. TO SUM IT ALL UP:This 1985 300CD Turbodiesel is one of the best examples of an original coupe available. The previous owner before me kept up with all the service and I have carried that on during the time I've owned it. One advantage I had was that I worked at a Mercedes-Benz dealership so anything it needed I took care of it. I'm only selling this to because I have 2 other vehicles and have succumbed to the pressure from the wife that we don't need a 3rd car :-) otherwise. there's no way I would put this vehicle on the market. These coupes are getting very challenging to come by and as time goes on the price will only go up on the nice ones like this one. If you have any questions about the vehicle or would like to stop by if you're local to see and take it for a test drive. feel free to contact me. I have no doubt that this vehicle will give whoever is the lucky winner years of great service and enjoyment. If I were rating this vehicle on a scale from 1-10; 10 being the best I would rate it a solid 8!I'm listing this car with No-Reserve because I believe the market will determine what it should sell for based on its condition which is very good for its age. Thanks for looking at my auction and happy bidding!
