1982 Mercedes-Benz
300TD Turbodiesel Wagon
Exceptionally rare and highly sought after 1982 Mercedes-Benz 300TD Wagon. The 1982 model year of this W123 Turbodiesel wagon means that it combines the bulletproof reliability of the OM617 iron head engine with a powerful turbocharger. Only Mercedes diesels produced in 1981 to 1985 offered this extremely desired combination of reliability and performance.
Always meticulously maintained, it starts instantly at the turn of the key with absolutely no shaking or smoke. The 3.0L Inline 5 cylinder Turbodiesel engine runs incredibly strong and smooth with virtually no blowback whatsoever. The steering and suspension are tight, with no rattles or vibration. This wagon is fresh from an extensive service including:
· Fresh Mobil 1 Diesel Synthetic Oil Change and Filter
· New Primary and Secondary Fuel Filters
· Fresh Brake Fluid Flush
· New Brake Pads and Sensors Front and Rear
· New Rear Brake Calipers
· New Engine Mounts
· New Bosch Glow Plugs
Everything on this wagon works without exception aside from the rear left window and power locks, which have a common vacuum leak. The air conditioning will need a recharge in order to blow cold. The inside trim on the rear hatch has been removed and will need to be reinstalled. All of the hardware and parts that are needed to do this will be included. Aside from these items, this Turbodiesel wagon is turn-key ready, extremely safe and reliable and an absolute blast from the past to drive!
Although in overall great condition, this is a vintage car and will naturally show signs of use and age. Please refer to the more than 80 pictures that I have of the car below. This car smells clean on the inside and there are no leaks anywhere including the sunroof.
This very rare and exceptionally well-maintained Mercedes-Benz W123 Turbodiesel Wagon represents an exceptional investment; because of its general scarcity and desirability, experts agree that these W123 Turbodiesel Wagons are sure to significantly appreciate in value in the coming years.
