1988 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL The absolute finest W126 One owner 15k documented mi

The best way to describe this particular w126 is a second chance.

If you wanted to buy a new W126 sedan in 1988 and were not able, the opportunity is available today in 2017.

To say that this vehicle was a "well maintained" would be like saying Michael Jordan was a decent basketball player.

Pride in ownership !!!

Every service record (only dealer serviced) from the original owner dating back to 1988 is on file, including the original bill of sale and window sticker.

I am pretty well known in the Mercedes Benz collector car community, and I will state that this vehicle is easily the nicest and most original w126 sedans I have even seen.

Original Black Pearl (Code 199) is in show quality condition all around.

Original VIN sticker is present on every panel and bumper cover.

The car does not have a single door/trunk edge chip to disclose !

The vehicle's bright work (Stainless, chrome, and anodized aluminum) could only be described as flawless with no scratches, discoloration or fading.

Literally the best I have ever seen firsthand on either a W126/C126 bar none.

Original Securit glass is exceptional and crystal clear all around.

Original OEM 15" wheels were fitted with dust shields from new, and I would describe the wheels as nearly 100% flawless and not refinished or restored.

The wheels were removed from the vehicle this week and professionally and cleaned inside and out, and they are in new condition all around.

Matching Michelin tires on all four corners with greater than 90% tread remaining.

All original and unrestored Creme Beige Leather (Code 275) is near flawless and butter soft to the touch.

Zebrano wood inlays show no signs of fading due to UV exposure and have a flawless mirror finish.

Carpeting is perfect.

Original floormats are near flawless, and a rubber backing was professionally applied to each mat by an upholster (receipts included)

The engine bay and undercarriage must be seen to be truly appreciated.

The best engine bay and undercarriage on a w126 ever.

This vehicle should literally be on display at a museum.

Mechanically it is the best and most highly documented car I have ever come across.

The car runs and drives as new and all power options function 100%.

The vehicle's AC system was completely replaced in 2016 with receipts from Hendrick's Charlotte for over $2500.

All service receipt on this vehicle were done by authorized Mercedes Benz dealers.

All receipts are in the original owner's name.

Investment grade blue chip example !!!

No disappointments, and inspections are welcome !!!

All original, books, keys, bill of sale, window sticker, service records, original spare tire, tools sealed in bag, first aid kit, are in order.

To say that the owner kept service records would be an understatement.

Not a single fuse was changed without a receipt for documentation.
