Beautiful Example of W123 300D turbo diesel. Previous owner purchased in 1985 and drove between Knoxville and Florida after retiring from the armed services. Lots of highway driving to achieve 230k miles. Still runs like a sewing machine and the paint and interior are incredible. Nicest 123 interior I have encountered. It is currently garage kept and driven on the weekends. Very solid car that will easily blow past 500k miles (my previous 86 had 498k and new owner drives it 200 miles a day!)Recent work includes:Motor MountsTrans MountFuel tank and lines cleanedInjector return lines (soft lines)Pre and spin on fuel filtersAir filterOil/Filter ~150 miles agoVCV Adjusted (for slightly smoother shifting)Previous owner put in new exhaust ~ 4 years agoHe meticulously maintained it during his ownership with Bearden benz repair in Knoxville and there is paperwork with the car to show this. (Give them a call and ask about the car)What it needs:The A/C has slowly leaked. A re-charge will probably suffice but long term the leak should be looked at. Most likely leaking at evaporator as this is where they always leak.Suspension/alignment is probably ready to start refreshing. These cars ride great even as the suspension components wear out but being OCD I would probably begin this process next. It rides/drives fine as is (very comfy) but I just overhauled our 240D suspension and it only seems logical to do the same for the 300.There is a dent in the passenger side fender that could easily be pulled with paintless dent removal tools. I never had the time nor worry to fix it as I focused on mechanical items first.Brakes are fine but I would recommend a fluid flush soon. Brake fluid is hygroscopic meaning it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere over time. This is preventative maintenance to ensure your brake hard lines last. The interior of this 123 is the nicest I have ever come across in terms of no rips or tears of any kind anywhere. The only down side is the fading of the factory dye which is easily remedied if you have a weekend and DIY spirit. I preferred the "aged" look considering how clean and mint the interior is but you can dye it if you want with exact matching factory dye. The rest of the interior is immaculate from the carpets to the non cracked dash. Everything is original including the fully functioning cassette player and factory speakers along with the antenna and antenna button. Even the vanity mirrors light up as they should! Everything works!Please call or email if you have further questions. Looking for $7250 but am flexible. Local Pickup or can meet with car if reasonable distance. Will accept Cash or Paypal or Cashiers check etc.50 2 three 8 6 zero 2 7 nine
