1980 Mercedes-Benz 200-Series 240D diesel manual

Beautiful legendary 1980 Mercedes 240D diesel in a rare Burgundy/Red exterior over palomino impeccable interior. This car belonged to my grandfather, a perfectionist and its condition will prove it. This car has low original miles 142,630 (written on the title by CA DMV) and is in OUTSTANDING condition inside and out. This car has a clean and clear California title in hand, climate control garage kept, non smoker, the original paint is in very good condition and has a spectacular deep gloss, it is very evident this car has spent its life in the garage, there is absolutely no rust on this car. Air condition works great (Blows ice cold) The tires (Goodyear) and brakes are in very good condition, engine and transmission are excellent as well and I cannot think of anything off the top of my head that the car needs. This impressive machine drives fantastic, engine is very quiet and has that perfect Diesel engine sound, the suspension feels tight as well as the steering wheel and shifter. There are no funny noises at all, no clunking, no vibration. The car has one of the best engines Mercedes has ever created and is well known to last over a million miles, (the 4 cylinder diesel) and almost indestructible, used by many taxi cab drivers in Europe. I have seen and driven many of the W123 diesels from 300D to the 300 turbo diesel and nothing compares to this 240D, this particular car it is NOT SLOW!!! it is very peppy and couldn't make a big difference between a 300D and a 240D. The interior is in spectacular condition and shows minimum to no signs of wear. The seats are firm and the MB text is still soft to the touch, all pleats from the seats are still raised and with substantial cushion, all piping, rubber and trim around the door jam are also in very good condition if not excellent, carpet, floor mats and headliner also in great condition, all chrome around the car is excellent and has its natural shine, every single button and option in this car is in proper working condition. The car also has the factory sound system with its original working Becker Europa radio and 2 level antenna. The engine compartment and engine itself is also very clean and all manufactory stickers are visible, there are no signs of any leaks of any kind of fluids. The car recently had all fluids checked and serviced (engine, transmission, radiator, etc.) All manuals, keys, service records and the firstaid kit, are all available. This car is the exact opposite of the typical used car, and is truly in great shape. I hate my time being wasted, and will not waste yours. This car runs strong, shifts smoothly with no slipping or excessively hard shifts, and is in great cosmetic condition. This is a true NO DISAPPOINTMENT car. Please call me with any questions, or to set up a mutually convenient time to see and drive the car at 31O. 279. O254. This is truly a MUST SEE car and test drive!!! I would like to apologize for the pics. quality, they were taken with a cell phone and do not do the car it's justice. I will be more than happy to assist anybody with shipping but I won't be responsible for any fees, border duties etc. I encourage everybody to do a prepurchase inspection. Thank you for viewing and Good Luck with your search!
