For Sale: 1985 Mercedes W123 300D Turbo-Diesel Sedan: Daily Driver
Check out this gorgeous Petrol Green 300D for sale on our website!
This
1985 300D is a perfect car for a modern Mercedes-Benz enthusiast. It certainly stands out in a crowd with its classy and eye-catching color.
Mercedes-Benz made several changes to the W123 for the 1985 model year. This particular car for sale is a Federal Model (not a California model). Because this car is a 1985 model, it comes equipped with the coveted 2.88 geared differential which allows for a more comfortable driving experience when cruising at highway speeds.
This car spent the first 22 years of its life in New Mexico, and has
since been kept in Minnesota. Interior and exterior are in excellent
condition with a few minor flaws. This car is mechanically sound with no known issues other than climate control, and is an excellent candidate for someone looking to enjoy the pleasures of this beloved model, while also still having things to fix and tinker with on the weekends.
This saloon is powered
by the OM617A (617.952) 5 cylinder turbo-diesel engine, one of
Mercedes-Benz' most beloved workhorses. With a cast iron head and block,
these engines are notorious for driving over 400,000 miles between
rebuilds. The 722.315 series transmission is robust and shifts well.
