1995 Mercedes-Benz E220 Cabriolet C124

Highlights

  • Very well kept and great specification 
  • Low mileage with just four owners from new 
  • Extensive service history including original sales invoice 
  • Long MOT to November 2024 
  • Practical & versatile four seater convertible 
  • Desirable 2.2litre 145bhp engine 

The Appeal 

The C124 was almost unique in the market: a big, four seater convertible that gave sun-worshipping buyers all the exemplary luxury and engineering qualities of the highly regarded W124 range.
It was so well executed that it remained in production for 14 years, virtually unchanged. The E220 came late in the car’s life, marking the arrival of the excellent 2.2litre 145bhp engine. This model is well regarded by enthusiasts for its blend of performance and economy. 
Smartly specified in Azurite Blue over beige leather, this well kept, low mileage E220 has excellent service history and a long MOT. Practical and usable as a daily driver or weekend treat, it looks very tempting.
