Comments from the seller

THE REAL DEAL This immaculate eye catching Mercedes-Benz 280CE Coupe will be hard to beat. Nothing short of excellent condition all round and a beauty to drive. Classic Mercedes-Benz colour profile with an Aztec Gold exterior and immaculate beige interior, this is an impressive collectors item which will only increase in value as they become more and more rare. An extensive service history and recently refurbished interior trims along, with new door and window seals. The W123 series is synonymous with reliability and quality, resulting in care free, reliable motoring and ownership. This particular vehicle has incredible standard equipment for it’s time, including: Air conditioning Power Steering Self levelling suspension Electric windows Electric Sunroof Cruise Control Central Locking Imperfections: There are VERY slight chips on the front There is slight cracking in the laminate central control fascia There is slight damage on the dash board above the handbrake return. Inspections are most welcome and a roadworthy will be provided as part of the sale. Pending house purchase reluctantly forces sale. (Number Plates are not included)
