One of a brace of lovely W124 (C124) cabriolets in this collection sale, this being one of the last pre-face lift models before the model designation changed to become E-class.
Featuring the silky smooth and powerful 3.2 straight-six engine mated to four speed automatic transmission with sport and winter modes, the car has covered a low indicated, if unsubstantiated mileage of only 39,155 miles and has had only two former keepers, being purchased in 2008 to form part of this collection according to the accompanying V5C.
The car presents well, finished in period correct two-tone blue with mushroom hide and walnut trim. The electric blue soft top looks in good original order but is untested as the car has not been run for some time and we have not attempted to start it.
An invoice on file from Sinclair Group Mercedes-Benz dated 2010 totals £943 for a general service, crank sensor, new relay and an MOT. The car’s last Mot expired in May 2012, however the car was taken for a test in September 2016 at which time it failed due to loose near side front wheel nuts and poor performance from the hand brake.
Requiring some minor recommissioning, this impressive range-topping W124 looks just the thing to help shake off those winter blues.
