The lasting legacy of the W123 which is a solidly built automobile with timeless poise and class. Introduced in 1976, the W123 platform included a four-door sedan and sleek coupe. In the U.S., the W123 was available in three body styles, coupe, sedan and wagon, but due to stricter emissions regulations in the US, a limited range of engines were available. Due to high demand, many cars for immediate purchase were offered in a sort of black-market with high premiums paid over sticker price. Not only were the W123 cars designed with luxury in mind, but were also engineered with crash protection in mind.
Featured here is a very clean example of the 1977 300D sedan with only 98,000 miles on the odometer. The brown paint on this car is well maintained with some minor blemishes and a few chips in the finish but presents well with a nice shine. The bumper chrome and related stainless trim and adornments present with a nice luster. The rubber bumper fillers are in nice shape and still soft and pliable.
Inside the spacious interior the upholstery, door cards, carpet and headliner are all original and have been well maintained and cared for showing very little wear and tear. The wood dash trim nicely complements the clean and purposeful interior. The dash is filled with factory gauges including temperature and oil pressure and analog clock. Other options include air conditioning, power windows and locks, Becker AM/FM radio, power antenna, cruise control and rear window defogger.
Under the hood the engine compartment is very clean and well maintained. The 3.0L diesel is backed by a 3-speed automatic. Meticulous maintenance is well documented in a journal that is provided with the sale along many spares. The undercarriage of this Mercedes is well preserved and very clean. The underside still has much of its factory undercoating and features power 4-wheel disc brakes and power steering.
This Mercedes is a great car to drive, perfect for taking on a day trip sightseeing, or just for a fun way to travel out on a date night. Lovingly cared for and maintained, this 300D is ready to go and create some new memories in its next garage! Please call if interested or e-mail with specific questions. Thanks for looking.
