This W124-generation Mercedes-Benz E220 Coupe is a particularly well cared-for example of the modern classic pillarless coupe, which benefits from significant restorative maintenance. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 2.2-litre inline-four, delivering around 110kW to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. The odometer shows 250,850 Kms from new. This original Australian-market example has been with the seller and third owner for two years. This E220 Coupe is finished in Blue Black Metallic paintwork over a grey leather-trimmed interior, with a contrasting black upper dashboard, and wood veneer trim inlays. It rides on a set of period-correct aftermarket 17-inch Carlsson Evo Monoblock alloy wheels (made by Ronal in Germany), shod in mixed tyres. The factory specification includes an electric sliding sunroof, electrically operated retractable rear headrests, air conditioning, a cassette stereo with CD multichanger, electric windows, and electrically adjustable door mirrors. This example now features a front aero spoiler and the previously mention aftermarket alloy wheels. The car will be supplied with a warning triangle, the owner’s manuals with a black fabric wallet, two keys, a spare key, the service booklet, all maintenance invoices from the seller’s ownership, partial service history from previous owners, and a collection of spare parts. Original 16-inch wheels, extra steering wheel, and some spare parts will be supplied. The car has been treated to a full exterior respray in the original code of 199 Blauschwarz Metallic (Blue Black Pearl Metallic). The seller notes a number of previous minor dents and areas of damage, which were repaired before the car’s full respray. Today, the Blue Black Metallic paintwork is reported to be in excellent condition, with no notable marks, though there are blemishes on the door mirror trims, as well as scuffs, scratches, and chips on the alloy wheels. Its exterior paint has been professionally detailed and ceramic coating applied to preserve the new finish. Moving inside, the front seats have been fully retrimmed, the rear seats nourished, cleaned, and recoloured. The partially retrimmed interior is presented in generally great shape, with a few age-related signs of wear. These include minor imperfections and cracks on the transmission tunnel trim inlay, discolouration on the stereo controls, wear on the gear knob, and a few other minor blemishes and scuffs. The seller is not aware of any mechanical faults, though they do note that the sunroof does not function, and the front passenger seat reclines but does not pull forward again.
