SUMMARY
A one owner, low-mileage Mercedes W124 offered at an attractive guide.
DESCRIPTION
- The W124 era Mercedes really can be seen as the marque’s golden child. Stylish, well equipped and with the robust longevity of a piece of agricultural machinery
- Owned since new by its current keeper, this W124 has covered less than 45,000 miles since new
- Powered by a naturally-aspirated, 2.6-litre inline-six, delivering around 160bhp to the rear wheels through the 4-speed automatic gearbox
- Finished in Signal Red over a beige pinstripe fabric-trimmed cabin, with matching cream dash and Walnut inlays
- Optioned with electric front windows, rear roller blind, electric sunroof, rear headrests, heat insulating glass and an automatic limited-slip differential
- Unfortunately most of the paperwork has been lost along the years, although a couple of recent invoices are supplied along with a fresh MOT
- This, one owner, Mercedes-Benz 260E is a refined and practical modern classic saloon, and will no doubt make a great entry level classic Mercedes saloon
