The Appeal

The Mercedes-Benz W124 is widely regarded as one of the most robustly engineered saloons of its generation, built to an exceptional standard and resulting in a fuss-free, executive-level car that could run and run. The 230E, with its dependable 2.3-litre four-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed automatic gearbox, represents a refined and practical entry point into W124 ownership, and remains eminently drivable.

This 1990 example is finished in a distinctive greyish gold and is complemented by gold trimming throughout. It comes with a reported service history spanning from new to the present day and has recently been serviced and checked over by a mechanic. A number of cosmetic enhancements have been carried out over the years, giving the car a purposeful and personalised appearance.
