Renowned for its reliability and build quality, the Mercedes-Benz W124 continues to be part of the imagination of many fans of the Stuttgart brand.
For this reason, buying a second-hand unit with a few hundred thousand kilometers is not an impediment for those looking for them. But what if we tell you that there is a copy for sale with only 995 km on the odometer?
Yes, we know that described in this way looks like a kind of “unicorn”, but believe me there is. We are talking, as it should be, about the example that we bring you here, a Mercedes-Benz 230 E (W124) that has never been registered.
Delivered to the Mercedes-Benz dealership in Braunschweig on May 27, 1987, this 230 E was on display for a year and then kept in an authentic “temporal capsule” until it was sold to another dealer 33 years later.
And it was precisely this stand that sold it to Mechatronik, one of the most prestigious classic car dealers in Germany, which has now put it up for sale for 49,500 euros.
Equipped with the 2.3 liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with 132 hp that was standard, this 230 E has an electric sun roof and a self-locking rear differential, but curiously it has no current “perks”, such as for example air-conditioning system.
But everything is immaculate, both outside and inside, which has been meticulously maintained over all these years. The result is one of the most special Mercedes-Benz W124s on the market, and for that reason it shouldn't take long to find a new home.
