Description
The Mercedes-Benz W124 is often regarded as the last true Mercedes and arguably the most beautiful one—a statement that's hard to dispute, especially for enthusiasts. Its design was ahead of its time, with an impressive drag coefficient of 0. 28 and advanced engineering, such as the multi-link suspension that became widely adopted later. This model is celebrated for its legendary comfort, practicality, and reliability, which contributed to it becoming Mercedes' most successful model to date. Driving the coupe version with the larger six-cylinder engine feels sporty, offering dynamic handling further enhanced by the manual transmission with its excellent shifting feel. The two-door variant's unique feature of fully retractable front and rear windows not only gives the model a distinctive look but also provides a unique open-air driving experience when all windows are down.
The coupe is very practical for city driving, with easy access and exit, and it excels as a grand tourer on longer journeys. The specific model on offer is in pristine, flawless condition, as evidenced by its historical ""OT"" license plate. The bodywork, chassis, and interior are all in exceptional condition, which is rare to find nowadays, and the color combination is particularly appealing. The wood trims and upholstery are scratch-free, adding to the car's immaculate presentation.
This car is worth seeing in person. It includes virtually all the period-correct extras: air conditioning, automatic alloy wheels, temperature display, electric windows, a flawless sliding/ tilting sunroof, and a rear differential lock. The W124 Mercedes models, particularly the Sportline six-cylinder variants, are experiencing significant appreciation in value. Current trends suggest that in 3-5 years, they could be trading for around 10 million HUF. Finding another car in such excellent condition with similar specifications and (practically full extra) features is becoming increasingly difficult. Comparable W124 coupes in near-perfect condition, with similar equipment and color schemes (like the checkered interior), are already priced at around 20, 000 euros on mobile. de.
