The Mercedes Benz W124 series was the most successful car range in the company's entire history and today the 124 range is appreciated not only for its design & engineering excellence but also for its longevity & continued practicality. Many features demonstrate how much thought & attention went into the design of the 124's rear end to add usability. For example, the rear screen wiper operates automatically if the driver selects reverse when the front wipers are in use. There are more interior lights than the saloon too. Effective form & function Everything from how the bonnet can open & be locked into position completely upright, to the ease of ability to maintain & change parts, there's very little that goes wrong with these . Some owners of various MB's have said the 124 has what may be the best design of all for a Mercedes dashboard. It's elegance and ease of use, clear instrumentation with excellent lighting, quality of switches, cold air vent in the centre (helps avoid drowsiness in warm cabins), simple yet effective cruise control, speakers integrated invisibly by the A-pillars (with quality separate tweeters installed via cross-overs), simple A/ C controls & illuminated vents. Visibility is excellent too and despite the headlights being Halogen filament type, they give excellent lighting and include pneumatic (as opposed to electronic!) headlight level adjustment Usually - by design, there are few electronics in these, which is largely why the 124 isn't known to have electrical problems not uncommonly experienced on later models.
Full black leather incl. electric front seats, electrically heated door mirrors with electric adjustment for both sides (w/ usual larger size reduced blind-spot passenger mirror), Electric sunroof, Cruise Control, Dual temp. control A/ C, Original option high power speaker system (uprated) including front door woofers & rear door mounted speakers too with a Becker original head unit , muli player cd in boot not tested, electric ariel CD/ Radio fitted), Dual SRS Airbags for front seat occupants, Luggage net (Can be used with all rear seats folded too!), rear tonneau cover, split foldable rear seats, original option floor mats, remote central locking etc. Note the boot area's first aid kit, warning triangle, Mercedes tool kit are complete & unused. The boot lid has a soft-locking read door has electro-magnetic close mechanism and there's even a leather strap to help close it. Central locking is of course pneumatic as on all w124's.
Paintwork is great colour very striking , metallic black There's a couple of small paint chips on the bonnet Note this wagon has (rare on these) headlamp wash / wipe fitted.
Interior Condition is excellent as pictures will show. The leather is in excellent shape, 3 layers of Mercedes mats all in good condition and even the boot area has a Mercedes load liner . Wood veneers everywhere . All electric seat adjustments work perfectly & silently, including head rest height, etc. The Leather is great condition These rear-facing seat belts are neatly held out of the way when not in use.
Wheels are BBS tye alloys do have the original 15” AMG type with car The self-levelling rear suspension means this makes a great car to carry luggage with bags of room in rear , For this model anti-roll bars were made larger .
5 link rear suspension . best spec. possible. , it drives faultlessly & is one of those cars that will break motorway speed limits whilst purring quietly with the usual W124 excellent sound deadening in the floor, lowest in period of class aerodynamics and the engine bay being separated from the cabin by two walls. one of the last W124 wagons produced
owned by me for years , been all over Europe.
