Description

1990 Mercedes-Benz (C124) 230 CE Coupe – UK Specification

An unrepeatable opportunity to acquire a true collector-grade 1990 Mercedes-Benz 230 CE Coupe. This UK-spec C124 is one of the finest, cleanest remaining examples on the market today. It presents in an incredibly rare factory color combination, boasts exceptionally low mileage, and is in immaculate condition throughout.

Exterior Condition

Finished in the highly desirable and iconic Blue Black Metallic (199)—frequently referred to by enthusiasts as a deep metallic charcoal. The paintwork retains a deep, mirror-like lustre across the entire body, completely free of the common fading or lacquer issues typical of cars this age. All body panels are laser-straight, the shut lines are factory-perfect, and the pillarless coupe silhouette looks as sharp today as it did in 1990. The glass, rubber seals, and external trim pieces remain soft, supple, and pristine.

Interior & Cabin

The interior of this C124 is what truly sets it apart. It features a highly coveted and exceptionally rare Beige Cloth interior. Unlike more common leather cabins that often stretch and crack over time, this cloth interior looks virtually untouched. The seats retain their factory firmness and shape, showing zero signs of bolstering wear or fraying.

The legendary Mercedes-Benz wood accents are in immaculate, showroom condition. The rich Zebrano wood veneer retains its high-gloss factory lacquer finish, with absolutely none of the typical UV fading, milky discoloration, or stress cracking around the center console or dash.

Mechanical & Driving Experience

Powered by the robust and ultra-reliable 2.3-litre M102 inline-four engine paired with a smooth-shifting automatic gearbox. Because of its remarkably low mileage and careful preservation, the car drives like a tight, factory-fresh vehicle. The ride is quiet, composed, and effortlessly smooth, delivering the exact "engineered like no other car in the world" feeling that made the W124/C124 era legendary.

Collector-Grade Provenance

This is not your average, tired C124. This is a highly preserved, investment-grade classic that will take pride of place in any serious Mercedes-Benz collection or stand out at any classic car concours event. It has been meticulously stored, sparingly driven in dry weather, and maintained to the highest standards.
