1982 Mercedes-Benz 240D 52K Original Miles Gold Tan Classic Diesel W123

Description for Mercedes-Benz 200-Series 1982

Here it is! A shining example of a 'grandma-driven', low-mileage, original W123 Mercedes diesel!
In excellent condition for its age, this 1982 Mercedes 240D diesel sports just over 52,000 original miles. In superb mechanical order, this car starts on the first turn every time, pulls strong with no excess smoke, and shifts smoothly through all gears of its automatic transmission. Electric windows and mechanical sunroof all function as intended, as does air conditioning and heat. Original tan MB-Tex interior is in excellent shape, the dash has no cracks, and all original floor mats are included in the sale. Garaged for most of its 37 years, the paint still has an excellent shine despite a few rock chips and minor dings/scratches/blemishes which have been documented in the photos. Tires are in good condition with plenty of life left. Only current known issue is with the original Becker cassette radio which is only playing to one side.
Those who know these cars are aware of the legendary reliability of these diesel engines, capable of eclipsing several hundred thousand miles. The classic design elicits waves and thumbs-up from other motorists, and the value is sure to increase as fewer are available, especially in this condition!
This vehicle is available for viewing and test drives locally in the Louisville, Kentucky area.Please ask any questions and I'll do my best to answer - see my feedback for reassurance of buying from a reputable seller. Mileage is currently at ~52,250 but will increase slightly as it is still driven occasionally.
