Description
This 1988 Mercedes-Benz 300E, registered in Quebec since new and acquired by the current private seller from the original owner, exudes timeless elegance with its Cabernet Red Metallic exterior and beige leather interior. Its 3.0-liter inline-six engine is paired with a four-speed automatic transmission for smooth performance. Featuring 15″ Gullideckel wheels, power-adjustable front seats, driver-seat memory, tinted windows, an electric sunroof, and manual climate control, the car offers both comfort and style. The seller provides service records, manufacturer's literature, a tool kit, a clean Carfax report, and a Quebec registration. Recent services include a July 2023 gearbox oil change at 99,000 kilometers, July 2019 brake disc and pad replacement at 95,000 kilometers with fluid renewals, an April 2018 gearbox oil replacement at 89,000 kilometers, and a September 2011 subframe and transmission support replacement at 70,000 kilometers. This demonstrates the car's meticulous maintenance history over time.

For US bidders, this W124 300E is directly importable without modification as it is EPA & DOT exempt being greater than 25 years old. For more information on transport/import please visit our Transport/Import page here.
The vehicle's exterior showcases a Cabernet Red Metallic (587U) finish complemented by gray bumpers, door trim, and rocker panels. Noteworthy exterior features encompass headlight wipers, seamlessly integrated fog lights, an electrically operated steel sunroof, and a motorized antenna. Adorning the car are 15″ Gullideckel wheels finished in silver, wrapped in 205/60 Michelin Primacy MXV4 tires, and a spare tire is stowed underneath the trunk floor. Braking power is effectively delivered by the four-wheel disc brake system.
It's worth mentioning that the seller attests to the absence of rust on the body and asserts that the paint is likely all original, a fact substantiated by the accident-free Carfax report. While highlighting the overall condition, the seller does acknowledge minor blemishes, notably rock chips and scratches around the bodywork.

The interior cabin showcases seating surfaces upholstered in a soft beige leather, harmoniously paired with a lower dashboard, center console, door panels, and carpets that perfectly match the color scheme. Notable interior features include power-adjustable front seats for added comfort, a cassette stereo for entertainment, manual climate control for precise temperature management, and cruise control for effortless journeys.
The steering wheel, equipped with an airbag, is mounted on a power-adjustable column, encompassing a cluster of VDO instrumentation. This ensemble includes a 240-kph speedometer for monitoring velocity, a tachometer for engine RPM tracking, a classic analog clock, and auxiliary gauges for additional insights. Displaying a six-digit reading, the odometer reflects a mileage of approximately 100k kilometers, with around 700 of those kilometers accumulated during the current ownership period.

The 3.0-liter M103 inline-six engine, in its original configuration, garnered a power output of 177 horsepower and a torque of 188 lb-ft. This power is efficiently channeled to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. Detailed images showcasing the underside of the vehicle are thoughtfully included in the image gallery, providing a comprehensive view of its condition. The sale package encompasses manufacturer's literature, owner's guides, a tool kit, and a collection of service records, contributing to the vehicle's comprehensive history.
