Description

Y do you want this particular car?

This 1992 Mercedes is a rare 300SD Turbo-DIESEL. This car is near impossible to find, particularly with the size and features that are mentioned in my auction. One may find these vehicles overseas, purchased either by royalty and the wealthy.The body of the vehicle has extra soundproofing, plus windows that are triple glass. Moreover, the body style has a timeless appeal. The 300SD engine that sold with the vehicle had its issues. I’ve rectified that by replacing it with a similar 300SDL engine with low miles a few years ago. And, the engine just completed a diesel flush with new filters installed. The 300SDL engine is bulletproof and known to have gone over 1 million miles routinely. Mercedes spent over 1 billion dollars in its development, see wikipedia. They get incredible mileage, they need very little maintenance. I’ve babied this car for almost 6 years. The only reason for its sale is that I do not have the time to enjoy it due to work and travel. It has been babied and needs very little to be perfect.Be prepared to be impressed if you are the winner!

One of a kind and rare beyond expectation!

Honorable Mention

The instrument cluster requires repair or replacement. I am working on that.

Look at the pictures – you can see the pictures that reflect small flaws.

Note that there is a AMG sticker on the front seats. They have a small seam at the same spot on each seat that need stitching if you remove the stickers. All of the seats are in really nice condition.

This is a vehicle that should last a lifetime and it is reliable and economical like you can’t even believe. You will not be disappointed, a lot of ride for the money. I travel as a Chief Marine Engineer and use the vehicle briefly when I’m around. It runs like a top and starts up every time no matter how long I am away. She needs to be driven and driven hard!
