Vehicle Overview

This 1980 Mercedes-Benz 300TD is finished in gold Champagne Metallic over red MB-Tex and is powered by 3.0-liter diesel inline-five paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes, roof rails, a manual sunroof, 14 Bundt wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, power windows, and cruise control. Now showing 218k miles on the chassis, with a documented dealer engine replacement by Mercedes-Benz of Bellevue in 1987 with approximately 76K miles on the clock since installation. Silver-finished 14 Bundt wheels are mounted with new 205/75 Goodyear Integrity tires. Braking is handled by power-assisted four-wheel discs.

Mechanical

The hood was repainted with new hood pad and some clear coat failure is present on the roof. The car is extremely reliable, starting, stopping and driving like it should. Areas that need attention: climate control and central lock system. Interior is in decent shape with normal wear for a car of this vintage. Rear hatch struts need replacement and are included in the sale. Recent work includes: New front calipers Rotors and pads F/R Flex disks F/R New motor mounts (5) pencil style glow plugs All engine belts replaced Transmission service and oil change A new OEM battery was installed last year along with a complete break service and oil change.

I have been contacted by at least three bidders who are unable to confirm identity using a Chrome browser. The process has a broken button that advances the procedure.
