Detailed description
We are pleased to offer this superb Azurite Blue W124 E320 Coupe for sale,just arrived from Japan and now fully registered in the UK this fantastic E320 Coupe will provide its new owner with many happy miles of classic Mercedes-
Interior: The interior smells good and (from the interior & exterior condition) has clearly been kept garaged and in a city all of its life when not in use. Note the boot area's first aid kit, emergency torch and tool kit are complete & unused. Amazing for a car of this age. Doors shut as effortlessly as the day the car left the factory and sound like a high quality fridge closing with a reassuring solid thud. Leather is in excellent soft & supple condition. Floor mats are in good condition -
It has never been smoked in. Ashtray & cigar lighter are still as new as the day this Benz left the factory, headed for Japan.
We could only find minor creasing to the edge of the driver's upright bolster. If desired, we can get this refinished in UK. It's inexpensive to have small sections of leather restored to new condition by a good leather / upholstery specialist.
Being a Japan spec. car please note the speedometer displays in km/h only. As part of our preparation work in the UK we'll be fitting a dual range (MPH & KM/H) speedometer face for the new owner.
Bodywork as pictures show is excellent. Paintwork is beautifully preserved and we note a lack of stone chips or fading as is common to the side panels, or most of the bodywork incl. the bonnet (indicating this car's been driven slowly). Note there are ZERO pin dents to be found on any of the bodywork, nor any swirl marks. From experience, we can tell this car's always been professionally cared for. The paint is of similar quality as an expensive hand-
It really is that good. Our pictures although showing a beautiful car, won't do it the justice it'll quietly display when viewed with ones own eyes.
There's some small stone chips on the underside of the front bumper (less than would normally be expected of a car of this age & mileage) & a paint chipped corner of the rear bumper (See pictures on our website's slide-
These intended improvements to the car's presentability are mentioned to give a complete report and illustrate the attention to detail we put into completing our cars.
Wheels: Note also the complete lack of corrosion to any of the original wheels. We noted some minor marks & scratches to some of the wheel edges, but otherwise the alloys are in beautiful original condition with no corrosion, which is testament to the care that's been taken with this car. We will be having the wheel edges re-
Note also door mirror's rubber boots are both without cracking and ageing, which is usual normal wear & tear on W124's -
If you compare condition of this E320 Coupe with a car that's been in Europe all it's life, you'll probably be shocked at the difference,all panels are beautifully rust free,especially underneath..night and day compared to most originally UK supplied examples.A question we get asked alot is do the Japanese market versions differ in any way to the UK(Europe) supplied cars and the answer is simply no,apart from the speedometer reading in kilometers they are the same cars with the same corrosion protection,the lack of exposure to salt throughout there lives is the key factor here,and as any shrewd classic car enthusiast will tell you is the key to a cars condition after many years.
Engine bay has no corrosion at all, anywhere. Looking inside through the oil filler cap, we could see the top of the engine is a golden honey colour which confirms its had very regular oil changes with synthetic oil throughout it's life in Japan and the engine is barely worn. Last oil change was less than 1,000km ago (See picture of the sticker on driver's B-
