1978 Mercedes 300D Diesel For Sale~Original~Extremely Low Mileage~2 owners

Mercedes Benz 300D W123 Sedan

Original, Extremely Low Mileage, 2 owners

Occasionally a car comes along that seems to survive forever: early VW Beetles, Volvo 544s, and, this car, the Mercedes Benz 300D W123. This model was written up in the New York Times for its longevity and faithful following. W123 is the internal chassis-designation Mercedes-Benz used for their executive line of cars, manufactured between 1976 and 1985.

The W123 models became the most successful Mercedes, selling 2.7 million cars before replacement after 1985.

There is good reason for their popularity; they seemingly run forever. Routinely, you will find 300D clocking over 500,000 miles. Finding one with 100,000 miles is like finding a new one. This particular example came from its original Florida owner, who maintained it so religiously that he recorded every fuel stop! I have owned and carefully serviced the car for around 13 years and it has never failed to provide reliable, trouble-free service.

The car is equipped with power steering, power brakes, air conditioning (blows cold), Becker AM/FM radio, tinted glass (removable), electric sunroof, power windows and more. I had the car repainted once, as the clearcoat in 70’s German cars was notorious for clouding over. But there was no accident, rust, or other repairs required, so essentially, this is considered an excellent, unrestored 2-owner car.

The car is in beautiful cosmetic and mechanical condition and surely is one of the lowest mileage models around. No dash pad or wood cracks, original seats, carpets, headliner. The trunk is also immaculate and rust-free. The car was just serviced, including a brand new Gold Duralast battery, oil change and filters, etc. It’s completely ready to go!

If you’re looking for reliable transport for the next few decades, you will not find a better choice. The car is sufficiently fast when driven properly to use for an occasional long trip, and it’s perfect for around the East End. And, since I forget to mention it before, it is extremely well-built (safe) and routinely gets 35+ miles MPG.
