EXTERIOR
With just shy of 57k miles from new this handsome 124 pillarless coupe presents to a really high standard. The lustrous Green-Black Metallic paint retains a deep youthful shine with quite a prominent blue hue in most lights, a very attractive colour that our studio photos really don’t do justice. This cherished example has always been carefully stored, which is evident not only from the superb rust-free condition of the exterior, but also the underside. Looking closer, the panels are straight and true along both sides, and the lights are crystal clear all round, with no signs of any moisture ingress or damage to report. A dusting of light frontal stone chips and one or two minor blemishes at the rear show the car’s honestly.
INTERIOR
In accordance with the low mileage the airy E-Class cabin presents beautifully. The striking beige leather is still incredibly supple throughout, with only some expected light wear to the driver’s bolster as evidence of use; amazingly the rear seats appear to have never been sat in. The door cards are free from scuffs and the dash shows no signs of any sun damage; the glossy walnut inlays are also in excellent condition having never been over-exposed to sunlight. Furthermore, all the controls have been checked and work exactly as they should, and pleasingly the original Blaupunkt head unit is still fitted for a perfect factory finish. At the rear of the car the you’ll find a very clean boot area with the spare wheel, warning triangle and jack present and correct.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
The engine compartment is extremely clean and is perhaps the finest we have seen of any W124. There are absolutely no signs of any corrosion, accident damage or poor repair, with all components appearing in first-rate original condition. The mechanics of the car remain factory standard, and quite rightly so as she drives like a dream. The 3. 2-litre straight six is a perfect blend of performance and economy, while the 5-speed auto ‘box ensures silky-smooth gear changes every time.
A common issue with Mercedes of this era can be with the wiring loom, but fortunately the current owner has already had it replaced. This work was done in September 2019, the part alone costing £734 from Mercedes.
WHEELS, TYRES AND BRAKES
The car sits on its original 8-hole light-alloy wheels, all in fantastic condition with no unsightly curb marking or age-related wear to note, even to the centre caps. They are shod in a matching set of quality Michelin tyres, all with at least 6mm of tread remaining. The brakes have also been checked and perform well on test.
HISTORY FILE
This lovely low mileage example was first registered in April 1996 and was supplied new by Woking Motors Mercedes-Benz. It has now driven just 57k miles from new in the hands only four keepers. Since arriving at 4 Star the car has been fully inspected and freshly MOT’d for the new keeper’s peace of mind.
The accompanying History File is complete with a raft of maintenance invoices from over the years, old MOT certificates, the first owner’s registration certificate, three spare keys, and the original owners’ manuals including for the Blaupunkt Pasadena DJ cassette radio.
