The Appeal

They don’t make cars like this any more. Mercedes-Benz built its reputation with its run of saloons between the 60s and 90s, culminating in the W124 whose impeccable quality and solidity felt like a show of intent by the firm’s dedicated engineering team.

The stylish, pillarless C124 coupe sat alongside the more functional saloon for those seeking a long distance GT without having to sacrifice practicality. Of the many models available, the one to have is this one, the E320, which blends durability, 220bhp 6cyl urge and surprising economy.

Finished in Midnight Blue with a smart grey leather cabin, this well appointed E320 would work equally well on the daily commute or blasting down to the South of France. It comes to market with an advisory-free MOT to June 2025. Recent work includes a full service meaning it is ready to use and enjoy.
