Here we have a W124 1988 Mercedes-Benz 300E sedan that will make a great donor car for parts or a winter project at NO RESERVE. Mercedes-Benz introduced the W124 generation in 1986 to replace the W123 & was produced until 1997. In 1994 Mercedes-Benz turned it into the 1st official E-Class. The W124 was the 1st Mercedes series to be fitted with the iconic "Gullideckel" 15-hole, flat-faced alloy wheels, characteristic of Mercedes-Benz cars of the '80s & '90s. Much of the W124's engineering & features were an example of advanced automotive technology. It had one of the lowest coefficient of drag (Cd) of any vehicle of the time due to its aerodynamic body. Its body included plastic molding for the undercarriage to streamline airflow, in turn reducing fuel consumption & even wind noise. This example was acquired by the seller in late 2023 for the purpose of bringing it back to life. It quickly underwent a fuel system service amounting to $1700. Unfortunately, the seller reportedly did not have the time to go further. The main issue with the vehicle stems in the engine where the 4th & 6th cylinders show no compression. The engine reportedly does start & will be able to climb a ramp for towing. The interior does look to be in fair condition by the photos. Along with the new fuel system parts & lots more such as the lights, wheels, sunroof, the car will make a great donor for parts or a winter project resulting in something ready to go come spring. It is powered by a 3.0L M103.983 Inline-6 engine spinning the rear wheels through a 4-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle is said to carry a clean title, requiring a new lease on life or being the donor for another. At NO RESERVE, this car will be selling to the highest bidder at auctions end. - 4-speed 4G Tronic automatic transmission - Anthracite Grey (172U) over grey MB-Tex upholstery (978A) with wood grain trim - Power everything - Cruise control - Heated mirrors - Sunroof - A/C - 4-spoke steering wheel - Becker Grand Prix radio - Driver seat memory function - Headlight washers - 15" Gullideckel wheels - Power: 177 HP & 188 Lb-Ft of Torque - Curb Weight: 3064 lbs
