Exterior

Azurite Blue with Mushroom leather, a magnificent colour combination well suited to the elegant 90s lines of the 124 estate. Previously the subject of a full repaint to a high standard the car presents in great mileage-defying condition, and mechanically it’s spot-on too. The bodywork has just been treated to a full detail and machine polish revealing a lustrous swirl-free paint finish with only a few small chips and defects to note on close inspection. All the lights and trims remain in fine order and the original 8-hole alloy wheels are unmarked. Not a concours example but a much loved E320 in excellent driving condition.

Interior

The airy 124 interior presents in lovely original condition, a real testament to the superb fit and finish that Mercedes of this era are so well known for. The Mushroom leather seats remain in very good order with only light patination in commonly worn areas; the same is also true of the steering wheel and gear knob. The cabin is lifted further with lashings of walnut trim, a large electric sunroof, and original Mercedes overmats which are all really clean been covered over with another spare set. Desirable factory options include full Mushroom leather upholstery, automatic climate control AC, rearward-facing seats, and the rare 5-speed automatic transmission (4-speed was standard).

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION

The 3.2-litre straight six is as smooth as ever. The car has just returned from an independent inspection by our trusted classic car specialists who were unable to find any mechanical issues. Reading through the paperwork it’s clear to see that the car has been well cared for by each of its 4 keepers. The current owner of 8 years is a Mercedes-Benz enthusiast who has driven and enjoyed the estate for over 61k miles. During his custodianship he has spent an eye-watering £30k on maintenance and cosmetics to include a full cylinder head refurb, gearbox overhaul, new fuel pumps, rear suspension spheres, regular servicing, and the all-import wiring loom replacement. The underside of the car has also received significant attention so she’s ready to be enjoyed for many years to come.

History File

This attractive E320 Estate was first registered in October 1995. It has now driven 174k miles in the hands of only 4 registered keepers and having been serviced by the same Mercedes master technician since 1999 it has a very unique maintenance history. The current enthusiast owner has really kept on top of things and has spent around £30k on the car during his 61k miles of use. The last service was done in September 2023 at 171k miles, and for the new keeper’s peace of mind a fresh mechanical inspection has just been carried out. We have all driven the car and can certainly vouch for how well it drives.

The accompanying history file comprises the original Mercedes-Benz document wallet and handbooks, the fully stamped service book, a thick raft of invoices and MOT certificates, original sales literature, a fresh HPI report, and a spare remote key. The recorded service history is listed below along with some recent major maintenance items.

om Mercedes-Benz
I automobilhistoriens krönika utvecklas Mercedes-Benzs resa som en berättelse fylld av uppfinningsrikedom från sina grundande pionjärer. År 1886 skapade Karl Benz Benz Patent Motorwagen, en skapelse som skulle gå till historien som världens första bil. Okunnig om detta markerade stunden början på det som skulle utvecklas till den mest ansedda premium-biltillverkaren globalt. Den ekonomiska grundvalen för detta banbrytande företag tillhandahölls intressant nog av Karl Benz fru, Bertha Benz, vilket visade på ett anmärkningsvärt partnerskap som skulle sätta tonen för Mercedes-Benzs arv.

Inte långt därifrån framträdde en parallell berättelse när Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft, grundat av Gottlieb Daimler och Wilhelm Maybach, kom in på scenen. År 1901 avslöjade de sin bil under det nu berömda namnet "Mercedes", vilket betyder "guds gåva" på spanska. Detta namn tilldelades bilen på begäran av Emil Jellineks dotter, distributören för Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft. Innovationshjulen sattes i rörelse.

Hoppa fram till 1926, ett avgörande år som bevittnade sammanslagningen av Daimler med Benz & Cie., vilket resulterade i födelsen av Daimler-Benz. Sammanslagningen innebar antagandet av "Mercedes-Benz" som det framstående varumärket för deras bilar och förenade arvet från två visionära enheter till en.

I motsats till uppfattningen om konservatism vecklar sig Daimler-Benzs bana ut som en krönika av branschens första. Från introduktionen av honungskaksradiatorn till flytkarburatorn och den banbrytande implementeringen av fyrhjulsbromsar 1924 pressade Daimler-Benz konsekvent gränserna för bilinnovation. Den dieselkraftade Mercedes-Benz 260 D från 1936 markerade starten för dieselmotorer i personbilar. Den ikoniska Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing gjorde historia som den första bilen med direkt bränsleinsprutning, även om Gutbrods lilla 2-taktsmotor kan göra anspråk på företräde.

Säkerhetsinnovationer blev en kännetecken, med Béla Barényis patenterade säkerhetscell i "Ponton"-modellerna 1951 med främre och bakre deformationszoner. W116 450SEL 6.9 såg införandet av Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), ytterligare en banbrytande säkerhetsfunktion. Från de första serietillverkade krockkuddarna och därefter fortsatte "första" att etsas in i Daimler-Benzs tyg.

Under sin över hundra år långa resa har Mercedes-Benz inte bara producerat bilar utan har skulpterat ikoner. SSKL, 710 SSK Trossi Roadster, 770K Grosser, 540K Spezial Roadster, 300SL Gullwing, w100 600 Pullman, w111 280SE 3.5 Flachkühler, w113 230SL Pagoda, w109 300 SEL 6.3 och w201 2.3-16 Cosworth vittnar om märkets engagemang för ingenjörsexcellens.

De dånande Silver Arrows, eller "Silberpfeile", inklusive W 25, W 125, W154, W165 och W196, skapade ett arv av dominans på racerbanan. Dessa maskiner var inte bara bilar; de var uttryck för precision, hastighet och en oövervinnelig anda som lämnade sina konkurrenter i dammet.

När Mercedes-Benz går in i framtiden gör det inte bara som en biltillverkare utan som en förvaltare av ett arv, en fackelbärare av innovation och en fyr av bilaexcellens. Vägen framåt kommer säkerligen att bevittna den fortsatta föreningen av toppmodern teknik, tidlös design och ett obevekligt åtagande att sätta nya standarder inom bilvärlden.
