1 Owner, Extreme Maintenance, Original Paint, Garagd, Ultra Pamperd, Runs Great

1985 Mercedes Benz 300 TDT Turbo Diesel WagonI have owned over 100 of these W123's and this is by far the smoothest shifting and well maintainedspecimen that I have had the privilege of playing with.
Mechanically and electrically: It shifts smoothly and at the right rpm in every gear. Ac is ice cold, power steering, brakes, windows, locks and hydraulic rear shocks all function as they should. All gages work including the tachometer and even the clock. There are no lights lit. I just had the transmission fine tuned by Onegars Mercedes in Chula Vista which is one of the premiere diesel shops in the world. One of the fuel lines was leaking so I replaced it. I just purged and recharged the AC system and it blows ice cold. The brakes are excellent, and the suspension is in excellent condition. Original radio and power antenna still function normally. Rear seat springs and padding are firm and excellent. Mechanically it is all there. Turn signals, and lights all work, dome light too. Vacuum locks and engine cutoff vacuum function as they should. Not much more to say about it mechanically.
Cosmetically: She has been garaged since new so the clear coat, paint and body are extremely well preserved as is the interior. This baby has been garaged throughout so there is no fading of the paint or cleacoat. Original paint job is gorgeous. Original body is as close to flawless as I have ever owned without taking it to the body shop first. No door dings or bumper dings. It is in excellent condition outside. Inside the news is even better. The seats are all without tears, holes, slices any of that. The springs in the drivers seat are still strong and feel like new as does the seat padding. All seats and carpets are excellent. The headliner is excellent as well.
I have owned many low mile W123's and this is the best running one I have ever had. Bid with confidence.
Clock shows 370,000 miles but carfax shows some inconsistencies so I think it is more likely to be way less than that. I am listing the miles as True Miles Unknown.
The carfax shows a jump of 150,000 miles between garage visits and I suspect that the odometer was replaced with a higher mile one at some point. Or maybe it is right and it was driven by a 100 lb person that didn't cause wear inside or out. Even the interior wood is all excellent including the shifter wood which usually fades or cracks.
The only flaw I can find is that the passenger seat padding has eroded slightly. I can have that restored before shipping you like.
