1987 300D Mercedes
Up for auction is my good condition 1987 300D Mercedes. The car is in very good condition. All power windows work. Radio works, AC WORKS!!! (VERY VERY RARE). Heat works, wipers, etc. The glow plugs were changed about 1 year ago. Battery was changed about 1.5 years ago. Rear springs were recently changed. Car starts right up and is strong.
The door locks all work however when you lock the driver door with the key, only the driver door locks. When you lock the passenger door with the key, all doors lock including fuel door. The cruise control no longer works. The power seats work however on the driver side part of the button broke (see picture). The power seat still works, you just have the push the piece of button with your finger and it engages and moves fine. Transmission fluid and filter was recently changed by my diesel mechanic (approx. 3000 miles ago). Spin on and in line fuel filters were also changed approx. 2500 miles ago. Oil was last changed approx. 3000 miles ago and is due to be changed. I have a few extra filters, random parts, etc. All extra pieces go with the car. The starter motor was also replaced with a new rebuilt one approx. 1 month ago. Car starts immidiatelly and strong with new starter motor. I also have another 4 rims with used snow tires mounted on them. You will get those as well. Additionally there is a 5th rim, with the used spare tire. Original jack is also included.
As the car is almost 30 year old there are obviously imperfections, small nicks, small scratches, etc etc etc. The car is USED, it is not in mint new showroom condition. Seats are in excellent condition. Carpet shows some minor signs of wear as a 30 year old car will. Dashboard has a cover on it which was there when I bought the car. I am assuming there may be some sun cracks on the original dash however I never removed the cover as it appears to be firmly affixed.
I also had a new emergency brake cable and emergency brake shoes installed about 4 months ago.
These cars are becoming more and more rare each day and are a true testament to the quality of a diesel Mercedes.
This is your opportunity to get a good running diesel Mercedes at a fraction of what I paid and a fraction of what it cost new.
If you're looking at this auction, you know about these cars and how its getting harder and harder to find a good one!
There is no noticeable rust. Tires may need to be changed in the future.
Payment is by CASH only with a $500 deposit via PayPal once auction ends.. I have been burned by bidders in the past so I only accept CASH. Pickup is the responsibility of the buyer. I do not ship. No International bidders - ONLY US Bidders who can come to see the car and buy it in person.
I recommend that you come see the vehicle, inspect it, bring a mechanic if you wish, etc. I know the car very well and know that its a great vehicle! Obviously there is no warranty, expressed or implied. This is an almost 30 year old used vintage car!
Thanks for bidding and please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. I will do my best to answer.
