Description

Reduced as I really don’t have the space, other cars in the collection are taking priority.

Just had a full top end rebuild with new valve stems and seals, heads skimmed and new head gaskets. Rebuilt alternator, new fuel pump. Car runs flawlessly.

I have used this wonderful car as my everyday car for a few months and now time has come to sell it, it is part of a large collection of classic Mercedes.

Full history until 100k miles (early 90s)
Has only done around 4k miles since 2009 ( as per MOT history )
Just serviced and gearbox serviced and rear diff serviced.
New fuel pump.
New rear springs and shocks.
The car runs and drives great and hasn't let me down once.
The interior is immaculate and unmarked.
Chrome is in excellent conditon.
The car was resprayed at some point and the car was kept under a cover which has unfortunately caused some blistering however as you can see in the pictures its not noticeable from more than 1m away. It could be used as is but could also do with a respray. The price reflects this.
