Mercedes Benz 300E recent restoration
I am selling my 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300E (3.0L) that I have had for a little over two years.
This is a car that will still has a lot of life left in it. It just went under a multi-month restoration including paint, uspension, nd exhaust. Selling it as I am moving to city.
All of the mechanical components of the car work like brand new, s many of the parts have been replaced. I have cataloged all of the parts that were replaced, hen they were replaced, nd by whom. The interior is mint and is very clean. Nonsmoker. The interior also went under recent improvements as well including a new sound system. It was originally owned in Florida and has no rust. This car is very well cared for and runs exceptionally well.

Mechanically, he car is in excellent condition. The engine runs smoothly and shifts well. The car drives, ides, nd handles very well with precision. The exhaust, uspension, rakes, nd fuel system were all updated to bring the car back to original production quality and will last the life of the car. The car only has 131,347 miles, hich is very low considering the age of the car and the fact that it is an older Mercedes-Benz.
Up until 1999, ercedes-Benz "over-engineered" their vehicles - resulting in exceptionally solid and reliable build quality, nd this car is no exception. I have experienced no mechanical problems with the vehicle. I originally bought this car with the intention of refurbishing it. This car was originally owned in Florida - meaning there is no rust or water damage on the vehicle. The car recently went under a complete repaint and will last the life of the car. During the repaint, ll seals and gaskets were replaced.
The car gets good gas mileage (18/23), specially considering its age. The oil has been changed every 6 months. It has a spacious boot, nd can carry up to 4 passengers. The interior is in beautiful condition, nd overall, his is a very neat car.
Overall, he car is priced well for the work and quality you are getting. I am selling it as I will be moving to the city and do not have any need for a car. The total value of the car is approximately $8,500 with the work that has been put into it.
This car does not need any mechanical work and has tremendous life left. I love this car dearly and am sad to have to sell it.
