TTG 665Y

1983 Mercedes 230TE auto.

 

Classics Central auction, Bedford Autodrome -

 

"Manila Beige over Date cloth

– Long MoT

– Iconic estate car model

 

Mercedes-Benz’s only ever factory produced chrome-bumper estate car, the W123 has always been synonymous with practicality and luxury all at once. However, in recent years the W123 model has acquired something of a cult status, built upon the values of Mercedes-Benz engineering and durability, and also the fashionable retro-appeal which is so apparent with these 1980s style icons.

 

This Manila Beige 230TE benefits from an all-new for 1980 fuel injected M102 engine, good for 134bhp when released: it is mated to a four speed automatic transmission. Sporting the iconic chromed wheel embellishers and fitted with a sunroof, this 230TE has been in long-term ownership since 1990 and has had only four keepers in total since being delivered new to the UK in 1983.

 

With an MoT to 7 January 2017 and showing 120,000 miles, this iconic chrome bumper Mercedes estate is an ideal chance to experience one of the most legendary automobiles ever produced in our lifetimes."

 

Estimate £3000 to £4000. Unsold.
