An indulgent Mercedes-Benz W124 E220 Cabriolet with just two owners and full history.

EQUIPMENT
All steel monocoque body, torsionally resistant safety cell, impact-absorbing front and rear sections, electro-hydraulic roof operation, roll over protection, wind deflector, tinted safety glass, laminated windscreen, heated twin washer nozzles, panoramic windscreen wiper, Infra-red remote locking, pneumatic headlamp range adjust, parking lights, electric seatbelt feeders, remote rear headrest lowering, driver and front passenger airbags, fine wood veneer cappings, electrically adjustable heated door mirrors. Factory options; Electric driver’s memory seat, electric front passenger seat, electric height adjust on front seat headrests, front seat heaters, outside temperature indicator, Speedtronic cruise control, anti-theft system, luxury automatic climate control, front central armrest, headlamp wash, metallic paint.

EXTERIOR
The sleek angular lines of the W124 Mercedes-Benz cabriolet are instantly recognisable and this E220 Cabriolet example is a fantastic testament to this design classic. Finished in original and optional Ruby Metallic (code 572) the polished paint finish is very pleasing with only small paint blemishes noticeable, namely stone chips and a tiny section of lacquer peel to the bonnet. There is a tiny section of paint lift to the nearside rear arch and Mercedes main dealer number plates remain fitted. The electro-hydraulic roof operation is seamless and the hood remains watertight with only minor lifting to the fabric around the rear screen. A redundant small phone aerial remains fitted to the offside rear wing. Ever pioneering, Mercedes eliminated the traditional roll over bar in favour of automatic rollover protection which also double as electrically operated rear head restraints. An excellent example synonymous with exceptional Mercedes-Benz build quality.

INTERIOR
Luxury and opulence in abundance, a cabin space that was, and in many ways still is, hugely ahead of its time. Features such as electrically adjustable head restraint height to compliment the electric front seats as well as the automatic seat belt feeders hint towards the ‘over engineering’ of the Mercedes-Benz W124. The contoured seats trimmed in original Mushroom Leather (code 265) are ergonomically designed for optimum comfort with lateral support and seat-suspension designed to harmonise with the vehicles actual suspension. The upholstery with matching doors cards is clean and displays general age related wear but no holes or rips. The leather to the steering wheel is now worn and the original Blaupunkt Canberra RCM85 stereo operates well but the digital display is grainy. Outstanding Mercedes Benz craftsmanship.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Fitted with the Mercedes four cylinder 16v unit of 2199cc displacement, the engine produces 150bhp at 5500rpm and 210Nm of torque at 4000rpm. A top speed of 128mph and 0-62 in 12.0 seconds is achieved effortlessly in this exceptionally well maintained example. The four speed automatic transmission operates exactly as the manufacturer intended with smooth changes and positive kick down. Sheer motoring indulgence.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The original unrestored eight-hole alloy wheels are well presented with only light delamination and scratches to the outer rims. Matching 195/65 R15 tyres have good tread remaining. The boot area houses spare wheel alongside the original toolkit roll, jack, warning triangle and Mercedes first aid kit. Dual-circuit servo braking system with vacuum booster and anti-lock assistance (ABS) offers excellent straight line stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
Supplied new on 3rd November 1995 by Mercedes Benz main agents Hills of Shrewsbury, this UK example has been exceptionally well maintained with just two owners from new, the second keeper purchasing from Drayton Mercedes Benz at just two years old.

EXTERIOR
This elegant and refined Mercedes-Benz is finished in Pastel Beige, (code 684) and displays a fantastic glossy shine and uniform finish.  The underside is structurally perfect and all factory panels are straight with linear gaps.  There is a small isolated area on the nearside rear arch where a scratch has been lightly touched in along with two minor scratches on the bonnet.  All chrome bumpers, radiator grille, door mirrors door handles and window surround are immaculate.  Beautifully preserved in original state, this example even displays the supplying dealer rear screen sticker and the presentation is every inch commensurate with a 42,346 mile car.   A spotlessly clean engine bay with factory stickers demonstrate just how original and cherished this car is.  A wonderful example of elegant design, legendary build quality and remarkable engineering.

INTERIOR
Wide opening easy close doors give easy access to an opulent and luxurious tailored interior.  Finished in Dark Green fabric, (code 056) the upholstery is in pristine unworn order as to be expected from such a low mileage example.  The anatomically shaped seats are contoured and extensively adjustable to fully support the body and offer optimum comfort.  The high quality deep pile green carpets are in amazing condition having been protected from new by original fit Mercedes-Benz over-mats.  As with the rest of the interior, the wood veneer remains in perfect condition and all the gauges, controls and electrics operate perfectly.  The Mercedes-Benz tool roll is complete and the first aid kit is still preserved in the original polythene wrapping and housed correctly in the rear shelf stowage hatch.  A minor marking to the glove box can be seen.  Offering a real showroom fresh experience, the appeal of this classic W123 model is immense.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The four-cylinder in-line engine with fuel injection produces 136bhp and has tremendous torque low in the engine speed range offering relaxed and flexible power delivery.  Incredibly smooth thanks in part to fine engineering of all moving parts but also to an additional vibration damper on the crankshaft it offers sheer cruising pleasure.  The optional four-speed torque convertor automatic transmission is seamless in operation.  An absolutely flawless and assuring drive, the embodiment of Mercedes-Benz excellence.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Steel wheels with original chrome Mercedes-Benz hubcaps, colour coded, remain on the car.  The hubcaps are in beautiful condition with a few minor markings.   Shod in quality 175/80 R14 Firestone F580 tyres with masses of tread remaining.  The spare wheel housed in the immaculate boot area wears the original Michelin item.  Dual-circuit power braking system with front brake pad wear indicators give the car a steady and assured feel as you would except from Mercedes-Benz.

HISTORY FILE
Registered new on the 1st October 1983 by Mercedes Benz main dealer M.Thomas (Continentals) Ltd of Plymouth, the first owner was a Mr J R Enoch.  Just three further keepers have cherished this incredible example over an incredibly low 42,346 miles.  The original stamped service booklet and many previous MOT’s and maintenance invoices are present in the history file to fully support the mileage covered.

Original maintenance books, handbooks, user guides and even a sales brochure remain with the car.  Rarely seen in such unmolested preserved order, this vehicle is certain to thrill a classic Mercedes-Benz enthusiast wanting a showpiece or an individual wanting to enjoy prestige classic motoring.
