This 1984 Mercedes-Benz 300TD is a excellent example of a very nice, original, honest mile car that has been cared for to a level you do not typically see. It is my firm belief that the only snow this wagon has ever seen is when I took these photos. It has never been exposed to the elements, both snow, and extreme heat, which has kept her well preserved.
This TD has a regal history. It was a European order, which typically was ordered with a naturally aspirated OM617 diesel, but this one was ordered from the factory as aturbo model with all the trimmings. (notice the bumpers and othervisual cues). This car was purchased by a well known member of German aristocracy and was purchased for the family nanny.
The car was imported to the US in 1986 and Federalized. This is a big deal and it is 50 State compliant, most of these were imported on the grey market, and have issues whenbeing titled in certain States, not this wagon. Title it in all 50 States, no problem! Clean and clear original title, impeccable well documented Carfax report.
The wagon has put into continued use by the originalfamily when they moved to the US and was used to gather groceries and other nominal tasks. Thewagon stayed in thefamily until about a decade ago, when it was purchased by a collector from PA, who took excellent care of it. I am a avid collector of W123 cars and purchased this as part of my collection, not so much for its' history, which isexcellent, but for its' documentation and overall condition.
The TD has always been expertly maintained by Mercedes-Benz themselves, or alternatively, one of the most well knownindependent Mercedes specialist in the Country.
When something was broke, it was fixed. Everything works, and she drives like new!Beautiful dash, excellent SLS system, and vacuum system.
