Please Wait For All Pictures To Load!

This 1990 Mercedes-Benz 200D is an almost unheard-of W124 diesel on these shores, articularly with a 4-speed manual. Finished in Anthracite Gray over light gray plaid cloth and fitted with an electric sliding sunroof, t's got to be the only one on our block! These are the cars that served European cities as taxicabs for decades... and in some cases, till do, ith a few million kilometers on the odometers...

The car came in from Eastern Europe with some G-Wagens a friend of mine brought in some months ago. We were doing another deal with him and I told him to toss this on our truck as I thought it would be fun to play with for a little while.

We fitted four new tires to it, hecked over all the brakes and serviced it as needed including a full underbody wash and an alignment. The OM601 diesel runs well and the transmission shifts ably with a light clutch.

There are a few rust bubbles here and there but nothing serious. The undercarriage is super solid. Note also the European-style towing hitch, he ball portion is in the trunk.

Even all four super-cool European wheel covers are intact and in good shape!

We have driven this car a number of kilometers since these photos were taken last fall and the car just runs better and better. It is now just over 171,000 kilometers (just over 106k miles) so it is a very young car, articularly for being a diesel!

Clear corner lenses give this the right look! We also added a hood star since these photos were taken!

The European headlamps are in good order and the levelling system works well too.

Check out that cool interior!

The seats are comfortable and supportive and the interior is very, ery clean.

No airbag here! Great hot oil pressure as well.

KMs have gone up since this photo, believe we're now over 171k (just over 106k miles)

Headlight switch with fogs and the headlight level control, t all works great.

Clean and elegant design.

Power front windows were likely added later in this car's life, ll MB parts.

More of the same, ust a nice clean car.

All this great original documentation was in the glovebox!

Super clean throughout the rear compartment as well!

Nice and clean in the trunk as well.

Electric sunroof works great!

The simple and super durable OM601 2 Litre diesel starts and runs great!

ABS was an option on this car, ut it's here!

Practically brand-new battery as well.

Euro VIN plate on the radiator crossmember.

As stated above in the listing, e have made a significant effort over the last few months to correct issues that we found with the car - and with said effort now believe it to be in extremely good health based on many years of experience with other sports, lassic and unusual cars of all types over many years.
