The Mercedes-Benz W123 300 TD belongs to one of the most recognisable generations in Mercedes-Benz history. The W123 is known for its classic design, robust construction and comfortable driving characteristics. The 300 TD combines this typical character with a practical body style and an automatic transmission, making it particularly suitable for relaxed drives and longer journeys.




This example was first registered on 16 June 1980 and is finished in Red. The displayed mileage is 160,774 km. According to the inspection report, the car is in an older original condition and presents well. The bodywork is original and shows signs of use as well as several areas of rust. The paintwork also shows normal signs of use.




The underside is original and in good condition and has recently received some attention. It is heavily protected with stone-chip coating and there are several rust bubbles on the lower left-hand side. The exhaust rubbers show signs of ageing. The tyres were recently replaced. The interior shows clear signs of heavy use, with a torn driver's seat and localised damage to the carpets.




Mechanically, according to the inspection report, the car is in a good honest condition and has been well maintained. The automatic transmission, brakes and handbrake operate correctly. The car is supplied with Belgian registration documents and a Belgian Car-Pass.




Xavier's quote:




"The W123 is one of those Mercedes generations that is instantly recognisable. The 300 TD combines classic Mercedes character with a great deal of practicality. This example has clearly been used, but that also means it has retained much of its original appearance and authenticity."




Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an inspection report for this vehicle.
