THE APPEAL
The robust W124, simply put, is a masterclass of engineering from an era when Mercedes Benz was producing exceptionally built cars to last a lifetime. Arguably one of the most influential cars to wear the three-pointed star, the W124 is still a sought-after means of transportation across the globe, with many sourcing the vehicle for its high mileage capabilities and impressive resilience.
Well presented, this 1993 220CE has been in current ownership since 2008 and has been excellently maintained over the years, with various invoices and receipts present. The car has also benefited from a large body restoration, including full respray, in 2019 helping the car's mature and sensible characteristics to be beautifully displayed.
