DESCRIPTION
Designated the W123 by Mercedes Benz the model line-up created a twelve month waiting list when launched in 1976. Such was the success that before the introduction of the W124 in 1985 nearly seven million units had been sold. Mercedes Benz enjoyed all the accolades of the world's press who proclaimed its virtues of build quality, style and reliability.
Offered here is a superb example of this timeless coupe. It was supplied new by Mercedes Benz of Sunderland on January 1st 1985. Now, four owners later and with only 40,000 miles on the clock, this coupe still looks exceptional good. The interior is unmarked, a testament to the legendary build quality of the W123 series. The bodywork is very original and still looks fantastic.
The fuel injected 2.3 litre produces 134bhp and provides smooth power and good economy making this a great classic to go out and enjoy. Power assisted steering and automatic transmission makes it effortless to drive and the ride quality is superb.
All the original hand books are with the car, the service book and MOT's all confirm the low mileage. It also comes with the original radio.
The quality of this coupe makes it a very unpretentious option to classic car ownership with the added advantage of genuinely durable "turn-key' enjoyment.
