Description
Three owners, the current for 21 years; 91,000 miles with 16 service
stamps; a smart example of this graceful Coupe
Supplied new by Mercedes-Benz Car and Truck Centre Ltd of Edgeware
Road, London in May 1989, this smart 2nd Series (1986 +)
C126 series Mercedes comes to us in 420SEC guise finished in Smoke Silver and
sits on its original 15” 15-slot flat faced alloy wheels.
Under the bonnet, we find the 4.2 litre M116 V8 petrol engine
developing 221bhp and 325NM of torque driving the rear wheels via four-speed
automatic transmission with Sport and Economy options.
Inside, we find a spacious beige leather interior, walnut trim,
electric seats with two-position driver memory, automatic seat belt butlers,
cruise control, electric windows, electric passenger mirror, electric sunroof,
heated rear screen, two-stage heated front seats, Pioneer radio/CD player, front
and rear arm rests and original medical kit.
The car shows 91,092 miles and presents well for its age having
been cherished by our long term owner vendor who purchased the car in April 2002
with c.52,000 miles recorded.
During our
vendor's tenure he has always garaged it, never used it on salty roads and
maintained it regardless of cost by various independent Mercedes
specialists.
The history file includes the V5C
recording just two former keepers, the Owner's pack and service book showing 16
stamps, the last in September 2022 at 90,941 by Autobahn Mercedes
Specialists. We also find a couple
of old V5’s, purchase invoice from when our vendor bought the car, another
historic purchase invoice, at least 20 old MOTs, the current MOT valid until
September 2024 with two advisories noted and few bills for works
undertaken.
Recent works of note (not all
documented, bar on a note from the vendor) include new ignition system
components, recent front tyres, four replacement brake callipers with the rears
renewed in recent times.
Ready to be enjoyed
this looks to be a very pretty low owner example that’s been
cherished.
