1990 Mercedes-Benz E-Class

This W124-generation Mercedes-Benz 300 CE is a well-maintained example of the modern classic pillarless coupe, which has been well maintained. Under the bonnet is a 3.0-litre 24-valve straight-six engine producing up to 217bhp and driving the rear wheels via a smooth five-speed automatic transmission. The odometer displays 184,833 kilometres (114,850 miles) from new. This handsome 300 CE-24 is finished in the timeless hue of Arctic White with light grey lower panels over a black leather-trimmed interior with dark burr wood trim inlays. It rides a set of 15-inch alloy wheels shod in matching Pirelli Cinturato tyres. The car is fitted with air conditioning, an electric sunroof, windows, and door mirrors, plus electrically adjustable seats with two-position driver memory, and rear headrests. In the boot of the car there is a full-sized spare wheel and a warning triangle. The original stereo has been replaced with an aftermarket Pioneer CD player. Apart from the new head unit the car is believed to be original with no other modifications. Included in the sale is various service history, plus original handbooks and the stamped service book. There is no impact damage present on the bodywork. The Arctic White paintwork is reported to be in generally very good condition and is also believed to be original. It shows some general small marks from use, but no major blemishes of note. The rear bumper has some scuffing on the corners. Inside, the leather generally presents well, with some creasing and more apparent surface wear to the driver’s seat bolster. There is also wear present on the steering wheel and the leather gear selector. The leather on the centre console is discoloured, the lacquer on the lower centre console is cracked, as is the plastic surrounding the lower driver’s seat, and there is a button missing from the driver seat control panel. There are no known electrical or mechanical faults with the car, and no warning lights on the dashboard. The latest service was carried out during February 2022 at 180,000 km by Tsav Mech Automotive. The work comprised of an engine oil and filter change, along with the replacement of the timing belt and tensioner damper. Prior to this, the car was serviced in August 2018. The vendor also reports that the car has been fitted with two new Bosch fuel pumps during their ownership. This Mercedes-Benz 300CE-24 is an elegant modern classic pillarless coupe that is presented in good cosmetic and mechanical order. The car wears its mileage well, which is a testament to Mercedes build quality of the era, and while there are some small items in the interior that the new owner may wish to address in due course, the car is serviced and ready to be driven. It would make a great daily driver, or indeed a refined long-distance cruiser. The description of this auction lot is, to the best of the seller's knowledge, accurate and not misleading.
