Description
This Mercedes 300TE has covered just 65k miles from new, supported by a full service history, and is in quite exceptional condition throughout.
Low mileage, six-cylinder 124 estates in the right condition are extremely difficult cars to source as most have been worked to death over the last 30+ years. Yet they remain ever desirable thanks to their classless style and practicality.
This 300TE was sold new by Bradshaw and Webb of Chelsea, London, in October of 1992. It is finished in 904 Dark Blue with matching blue MB Tex interior, air conditioning, alloy wheels, illuminated vanity mirrors, walnut veneer, and a fire extinguisher, plus a ‘dealer fit’ Sony stereo system. It cost £35, 782.
Only four owners from new. The first owner lived in Chelsea and kept the car 18 years until 2010. The second owner was the owner of Mercedes specialists, Silver Arrows, who kept the car for a year. The third owner purchased the car from Silver Arrows in 2011 and kept it 12 years, always garaging it and using it sparingly. We supplied the car to its fourth owner.
This car has an incredible history. It is a full Mercedes-Benz service history with 21 stamps in the book. In addition, there is a substantial folder of supporting documentation that starts with the original bill of sale and containing every bill from new, and all MoTs going back to 1996.
Long MoT, HPI clear. All books and manuals, and spare keys.
We will service the car ready for its next owner on point of sale.
Having evidently been garaged throughout its life and spending much of that in London where road salt is rarely used, this 300TE is in absolutely fantastic condition. Crucially, the underside, and indeed the whole car, is completely corrosion free. Rare to find on these.
The paintwork is superb and the unmarked 15-hole alloys wear matching Michelins.
The MB Tex interior, known for its ability to be extremely durable, is immaculate. The original stereo remains along with MB ribbed over mats.
A very rare opportunity to purchase one of these desirable estates with such low mileage, low owners, impeccable history and in such beautiful condition.
