1993 Mercedes-Benz W124 E220 Saloon – 78, 000km | Japanese Import | Rare Spec
Registered in November 1993, this beautifully preserved Mercedes-Benz W124 E220 saloon has covered just 78, 000km (approximately 48, 500 miles) from new and has only recently been imported from Japan. With its timeless styling, solid engineering, and rare specification, this example is a true standout among surviving W124s.
Finished in classic Mercedes-Benz elegance, this is a non-sunroof model, making it particularly desirable for those who appreciate clean lines and added body rigidity. The interior features the uncommon and highly sought-after markless cloth upholstery, which remains in excellent original condition. Adding to the comfort and luxury are electrically adjustable front seats, along with a fully operational air conditioning system, and the factory-fitted Becker stereo still in place.
Mechanically, the car is superb. The 2. 2-litre M111 engine is paired with a smooth 4-speed automatic transmission, delivering quiet, effortless performance. The W124 platform is renowned for its build quality and driving refinement, and this example is no exception — the car drives flawlessly, with tight steering, a supple ride, and no unwanted noises.
It sits on its original 8-hole alloy wheels, all in excellent condition, and presents extremely well throughout. As a Japanese market vehicle, it benefits from Japan’s temperate climate and strict inspection standards, which have helped preserve both the bodywork and mechanical components. The paint retains a deep gloss, the underside is clean, and all electrics work exactly as they should.
The car is supplied with extensive service history from Japan and comes to its new owner with a fresh service, a new UK MOT, ready to drive away.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a low-mileage, original, and unmodified W124 in a seldom-seen configuration. Whether you’re a collector, an enthusiast, or simply someone who values classic Mercedes-Benz engineering, this E220 is a standout example of a truly iconic saloon.
