The W124 Mercedes and its variants are now rightly being acknowledged as true ‘youngtimer' classics. Carrying on from where the W123 left off. the W124 maintained the same traditional Mercedes virtues of timeless style. driving ability. unrivalled longevity and. of course. peerless build quality. They are a truly practical classic that can be subjected to the rigors of everyday motoring even when nearly three decades old. Excellent examples are very sought after as. although plenty survive. most have been subjected to hard use over the last twenty-five years or so.

This example has. by contrast. let a cossetted life having had just one owner from new in 1988 until 2014. It has covered just 112K miles and has a full Mercedes Benz service history.

Dr and Mrs Beazley purchased the Mercedes new from David J. Sparshatt. Mercedes dealers of Eastleigh on 11th April 1988. They ordered the 230TE in Arctic White with light brown cloth interior. automatic transmission. ABS. electric sunroof. electric front windows. exit lights in doors. outside temperature gauge. It has ‘dealer fit' air conditioning and electric rear windows.

Over their ownership they religiously serviced the car at only Mercedes Benz dealers. In total there are 26 stamps in the service book. Only the last service (24/03/15 & out of the Beazley's ownership) was performed by an independent Mercedes specialist. rather than a main dealer.

All the original book pack is present and correct with spare keys and even the running in tag originally tied to the rear view mirror. Together with the service book is a voluminous history file with every service/repair bill from the last 27 years. If the car needed anything. the work was done by Mercedes.

The result is a car that drives as new. It is so incredibly quiet and smooth with no noises or rattles. The engine is quiet and lively and the gearbox perfect.

The bodywork is in exceptional condition with hardly a mark. It is totally standard with no modifications. The interior can only be described as timewarp. The light brown cloth is simply amazing condition. as too are the carpets. even in the load area. The carpets are protected by genuine Mercedes ribbed over-mats in perfect condition. and a set of Mercedes rubber mats come with the car too.

A perfect everyday family classic for not a lot of money.
