Mercedes-Benz : 300-Series CD for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.25) based on 262 votes

    This 1978 MC 300CD is an absolute stunner.   It currently has 191k on it and this will increase slightly as it is currently being driven a few times a week around town (Diesels need lovin'. not neglecting'). This is the first year that MB introduced the OM 617 engine with the W123 Chassis which has since proved to be a historic and bomb-proof combination known for their longevity and durability. so at 191k it's only barely getting broken in.

    The car is in excellent shape partly in thanks to spending the majority of it's life in the southeast. (mild weather. no elevation. no salt. ). All the power windows work as well as the heat and AC (practically unheard of for these older models). AC has also already been converted to R-134 from the old R-12 ($$$) and the compressor is really strong for cooling off in the hot days or defrosting in the cold mornings. All basic maintenance is up to date. fresh oil change. fresh fuel filters (all three). glow plugs. breaks. tires…and it is in no need of any repairs. Starts right up in the cold and is ready to drive across the country in style and comfort.

     It gets compliments everywhere I take it including the Mercedes mechanics. and I've yet to see one that isn't fully restored even close to as nice as this. It has been babied. garaged. and finely tuned for many many years now. Interior is immaculate including the dash. It could use new weather strips around the windows to cut down on wind noise. There is an interior panel by the driver side feet that separated and broke recently (as shown in picture) which is pretty much the only thing keeping it from being in perfect condition. There is a stack of service records to go with it.

    Please feel free to ask any questions. calls and texts are welcome as well…I work in a hospital in Georgia. but the car is currently at my parents' residence in Knoxville. If picking up in person to drive home I can arrange to be there at pick up if it's on a Saturday. Would love to keep the ol' girl but I have absolutely no time for it before I'm transferred out west in a few months. The car is sold as is. no refunds or returns. If local you may arrange a time to test drive before bidding. Thanks for looking!
