Additional Notes:
Like many Mercedes from this era, the speedometer was replaced due to failure at exactly 76, 693 miles. The new unit started at 35, 850, and this change is fully documented, with the total current mileage just over 91, 000 miles.
The jacking points were professionally repaired in March 2020 following a failed MOT. They were recently re-checked during the latest service and confirmed to be solid and corrosion-free.
This car comes with a stamped service book and a folder full of invoices and receipts—testament to how well it has been maintained throughout its life, with no expense spared.

Why I’m Selling:
As an enthusiast who has owned multiple W201s and W124s, I can confidently say this is one of the best examples I’ve had the pleasure to own. Sadly, I’m now short on space and must let it go. I hope it finds its way to another enthusiast who will continue to cherish it.
