1981 Mercedes-Benz 300-Series Description

If you are reading this, chances are you are already familiar with the legendary Mercedes w123 chassis automobiles produced from 1978 to 1985. Some believe these were the last “real” Mercedes, built in part by hand, seemingly without regard for cost, only for quality and durability. The sedans and wagons are still used in some countries as taxis, and are remembered fondly as such in many others. Their timeless good looks reflect the influence of Paul Bracq, and their bulletproof engineering was simply what the brand represented. The elegant top of the line diesel sedan was only produced for four years, and only for the North American market. Just 18,007 were made, making it quite a rare car.
This beautiful white over tan leather 1981 300D diesel has just 272,600 original miles, and it is in remarkable condition. With the exception of the cruise control, everything is in proper working order. This was a one-owner car until last fall when I bought it, and I have driven it fewer than 1,000 miles since. While I have had it, I have attended to the things listed below, mostly tune-up related. It was always garaged and it still is. The original owner had all service done at the dealer throughout the car’s life, and kept current with everything the car needed. The car is truly a time capsule. The body is in very straight condition, with only the expected small blemishes from 35 years of gentle use. The car has never been in an accident and no bodywork whatsoever has been done. The paint (MB color code 737 Klassicheweite) is 100% original and still holds its shine beautifully. There is no rust. All the glass is original. The interior is 100% original leather, MB color code 252 Blau, and is in great condition. The carpets are in fine condition, the door cards are excellent, and rest of the interior, including the wood, the dashboard, the headliner, etc., is in equally good condition. A set of aftermarket protective carpets is included. The radio, electric antenna, electric sunroof, instrument lights, signals, head and fog lights, interior lights, horn, windshield wipers and washers all work. All the gauges work. The trip odometer works fine . The vacuum system is completely operational, meaning the fuel port locks, HVAC actuators, transmission shift modulation, and engine shut-off are all operational. The AC components are modern (R-134a) The car has a new Mercedes Benz battery, a new Bosch alternator. Mechanically the car is in tip-top condition. The engine has great power, does not smoke, and the transmission shifts exactly as designed. It starts cold, hot, or in-between immediately. There are no drips from anywhere. The valves are adjusted, the air, fuel, and oil filters are new, and the oil is changed (Mobil-1 Turbo Diesel Truck synthetic). The suspension is tight and lively, and the steering and brakes are correct. I would not hesitate to drive this car across the country and back at a moments notice. It is completely ready to get in and go.
No Smog Check Needed - Diesel - 1981 Mercedes-Benz 300D 4 door. Automatic, only has 272,500 miles. In Excellent condition. New tires, just replaced both rear axles, brake pads, valve cover gasket. Runs well, asking only $6000.
