Finished in desirable Petrol Blue Green Metallic (DB-877)
Advisory-free MOT
The Appeal
The W123 Coupé, internally designated C123, is widely regarded as one of the finest expressions of Friedrich Geiger and Bruno Sacco's design philosophy at Mercedes-Benz. Its elegant pillarless silhouette, build quality and effortless mechanical refinement have earned it a devoted following. Of the broad range of engines available, the 230CE is perhaps the most usable variant.
This 1985 example is presented in the desirable Petrol Blue Green Metallic (DB-877), a colour that suits the W123 Coupé's clean lines particularly well. The vendor describes the car as very original throughout, and it comes accompanied by a comprehensive history file documenting its life across seven registered keepers. Recent care has included replacing the battery and undersealing. With an advisory-free MOT in place, this 230CE is described as running and driving well and ready to be enjoyed. For admirers of Mercedes coupés, this is a fine opportunity to acquire a handsome and supremely usable classic._DSC3883.jpg310.5 KB
