It takes four decades of specialising in the maintenance and repair of Mercedes-Benz to amass a collection like this. We don’t think we’ve ever seen so many vintage components for one marque in one place. This collection is astounding.
The inventory predominantly consists of classic parts, approximately eighty per cent for Mercedes-Benz models from the 1960s through to the 1980s. The remainder are for various newer models, so there’s a comprehensive spread for those who specialise in the Mercedes-Benz.
Whether you’re a well-established specialist looking for inventory or are looking to start a business, this spares collection is perhaps unrivalled in breadth, size and quality. If you were to start selling off parts individually, the vendor estimates that the retail value would be considerable.
All storage racking associated with the inventory is included in the sale and interested parties are welcome to arrange viewings.
An overview of the collection is as follows:
The available Mercedes models from the 1960s encompass approximately 50 engines:
A mixture of V8 engines for R107/W126: 12 units
V6 engines: 8 units
V8 engine for 230SL 500: 1 unit
Straight 6-cylinder 103 code engines: 2 units
Straight 6-cylinder 300/320cc twin-cam engines: 8 units
6-cylinder diesel engines for W210: 2 units
4-cylinder engines for 190/230cc: 3 units
4-cylinder 111 code engines: 11 units
Petrol engine for W169: 1 unit
Early 6-cylinder 250 engine for W123/W115: 1 unit
280SL 6-cylinder for R107/W126: 1 unit
Early round-top petrol engine for W123: 1 unit
The inventory also includes a wide variety of body panels, such as doors, bonnets, boot lids, and bumpers, in addition to a selection of headlights, which feature approximately fifteen new W124 headlamps. The stock comprises various classic and later-model door mirrors, front grilles, and classic chrome bumpers.
Furthermore, there is a substantial assortment of electronic control units (ECUs) and other related components, among various additional items.
The inventory includes about 85 alloy wheels, encompassing a mixture of styles, with some available in complete sets. There are also classic R107 suspension parts, front and rear subframes, an assortment of leather interior panels for both classic and later models, and an extensive collection of steering wheels suited for various classic and modern models.
As the photographs show, there’s an enormous quantity here and the vendor comments that it would likely fill two forty-foot shipping containers. A ready-made parts business or spares inventory for a Mercedes-Benz specialist, this collection surely represents an unmissable opportunity.
