Description
The Atelier des 1000 offers for sale this luxurious Mercedes 300CE cabriolet, W124 type, presented here in a Blue-Black colour with grey leather interior and its black soft top.
After several years of deliberation to adapt the iconic saloon into a convertible in the best possible way, the Stuttgart engineers have done a superb job on the A124, giving it a clean, elegant line, while allowing wind-in-the-hair driving with four real seats.
This 300CE offers, without compromise, the charm of a vintage car with the comfort and reliability of a modern motor.
This example was newly delivered in Germany in 1992, then imported to the United Kingdom, where the car has benefited from meticulous maintenance as shown by its history of invoices spanning more than 20 years. Its former French owner carried out substantial work in 2024 to bring the car to its current excellent presentation.
This example is particularly well equipped:
- Memory‑adjustable heated seats
- Orthopaedic backrests
- Remote central locking
- Wind deflector
- Traction control (ASR)
- Original telephone
- Anti‑theft device
- Cruise control
- Alpaga electric roof
Sportline option including :
- Sport seats
- 8‑hole forged alloy wheels
- Sport leather steering wheel
- Leather gear knob
- Lowered sport suspension
- Wider tyres
- Individual rear seats
Mechanically, the car is in good health. Its six‑cylinder inline 24‑valve engine is voluptuous and delivers a refined note that perfectly suits the model’s philosophy.
Recently replaced: the water pump, spark plugs, thermostat and viscous coupling.
For sale, beyond routine maintenance, the head gasket has been replaced, including a head skim and replacement of the upper engine gaskets and the oil pan gasket.
Ignition has also been overhauled; the distributor head and rotor are new.
The four‑speed automatic gearbox works beautifully, gear changes are smooth and comfortable, and the sport mode allows you to extract the six‑cylinder engine’s full potential.
The steering is precise, and the road manners are pleasant and sporty, thanks in particular to the Sportline chassis and the replacement of the front suspension with new Bilstein dampers.
The original forged wheels are in very good condition, shod with new Dunlop tyres.
The paintwork has a very deep shine and was recently polished.
The underbody components are in excellent condition, free from corrosion and in keeping with the rest of the vehicle.
The panel gaps are within standard tolerances.
The cabin, sober and elegant, typical of the marque, is particularly well preserved and comfortable. The grey leather upholstery is in very good condition, as are the veneers.
The hood is in very good condition and the electric system operates smoothly, with no noises or snags.
Given the condition and the rare configuration of this vehicle, we are asking €28, 490.
