Seller's Notes

This W126-generation Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL is a well-presented modern classic luxury saloon in a stylish colour scheme, and with a generous specification. Under the bonnet is a 3.0-litre straight-six, sending 132kW to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. This Australian-market example is understood to be a three-owner car and benefits from a recent major service. The odometer shows 198,988 Km. This 300 SEL is finished in the sophisticated combination of Seafoam Green Metallic, over a Pebble leather-trimmed interior, punctuated by walnut veneer trim inlays. It rides the factory optioned 15-inch, 15-hole alloy wheels, fitted with Yokohama rear and Michelin front tyres. Equipment includes an electric tilt and slide sunroof, electric windows all around, electrically adjustable front seats, and air conditioning. This example is fitted with a modern CD radio head unit and a centre console-mounted mobile phone cradle. The Mercedes-Benz is accompanied by its owner’s pack, stamped service book and original warranty documentation. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. The last maintenance was a major service in March 2024 at 198,900 Km by Hills Euro. This included a transmission service, an engine oil and oil filter change, an air conditioning re-gas; and the fitment of a new fuel pump, fuel tank, spark plugs and rocker cover gasket. The service book contains 19 stamps, which are largely from main dealerships and specialists. The previous entry to the above is February 2007 at 170,599 Km from Autoace Prestige.
