A chance to buy an extremely rare 1979 Mercedes 230C. The 2. 3 4 cylinder M115 engine is strong and the automatic gearbox is smooth. A well spec'd car:
Vacuum Central Locking
Air Conditioning
Electric Windows
Black MB Tex Interior
PAS
Delivered new to Hong Kong in 1979, it was then imported into the UK in 1997, by its original British owner. This rare 230C has had £24, 000 spent on it during the previous owner's tenure of 8 years!
Most of the work was undertaken by Mercedes Specialist, Steve Redfearn in London.
To name a few of the recent works:
- New Front Calipers, Discs and Pads - 2021
- New Windscreen (Green Tint Top) - 2020
- New Radiator & Thermostat - 2020
- Body Rust Repair/ Respray, Seals (photo's of the work carried out) (£5, 503. 20) - 2020
- Timing Chain, Guides, Head Skim, Gaskets etc (£5, 021. 86) - 2019
A folder packed full of invoices/ receipts.
The bodywork is straight and shines well, it does have a couple of minor blemishes.
The interior is good, but has age related wear commensurate of age. All electrics work as they should.
The underside of the car requires work, as mentioned on the MOT Advisories, the N/ S rear caliper is binding also. I have too many projects on the go and the garages I use already have several cars of mine. I have been advised it is a weeks welding for any skilled/ professional. Once this is done, it will match the rest of the car and is sure to be an excellent investment.
Believed to be 1/ 10 remaining 230C's remaining on UK roads!
Delivery possible.
Viewing welcome.
