  • Seems to be quite a few questions as to the interior condition.
The interior is not restored or dyed. The drivers seat is not collapsed or sagging. The seat has no wear in any way. The door panels are tight and have no stains or dirt.
All the interior lights work and every dash light illuminates. One of the pics shows the console lights working.
The engine bay is pristine and all factory vacuumlines are intact.
More pictures are available upon request.
Nice dry examples of these W123 are becoming hard to find . Especially a fine example like this with minimal exposure to the sun and a crack free dash.

Today someone asked me to compare this 300D to the other 1985 for sale in Florida on E Bay. It is obvious that car is missing all of the moldings around the mid level of the body.(side moldings) .
The interior has a pink cast which shows major sun load.
Aftermarket radio.
Missing hood star amongst many other obvious issues.
