Extra options

Here we have a 1978 Mercedes-Benz 240D Diesel. An iconic and truly solid sedan known for its bulletproof engine and overall reliability. It was the E-Class of the time and designed by German Mercedes-Benz designer Friedrich Gieger from the W123 D model. The OM616 D24 naturally aspirated, single overhead camshaft 4-Cylinder engine was not about performance but more reliability. These engine especially the diesel's, under the right care can last hundreds of thousands of km's. With just 175,000 on this one and the care it has been clearly given by looking at its current condition, this is one of those long lasting examples moving forward. Impressive enough of an engine that they still use them today in India in Force SUV's under Mercedes-Benz. - 4-speed automatic transmission - Magnolia exterior paint over Cognac leather interior in spectacular condition - Sunroof - Cruise control - Blaupunkt AM/FM radio - Everything works as it should - Original wheels, the special 14" Bundt wheels - Always stored indoors - Fog lights - 205/70 Grand Prix tires - All original badging and antenna - No cracks in the dash - Power: 71 HP & 101 Lb-Ft of torque - Curb Weight: 3053 lbs 🎥: Link to walk-around video of the vehicle: https://youtu.be/EdVcQEFAvds

Issues/Flaws

- The seller is selling it with "total mileage unknown" as it might have been rolled back in the past but there is no confirmation on this, also no CarFax available as it was built prior to 1981 not having a 17 character VIN. However, by the looks of the condition of the car in & out, mileage can't be too far off if it is at all

Modifications & included equipment

- Mercedes-Benz wheel covers that match the Magnolia paint of the car included as well (seen in photos) - Spare set of steel OEM wheels with Mercedes-Benz covers & 3 extra spare covers included
