1991 Mercedes-Benz E Class 500E W124

Registered on December 31st 1991 in Germany, this W124 series 500E is finished in Blue Black metallic paint (199U) with black/grey sports check cloth & half leather upholstery (071). This example has covered just 78k miles (showing 126,00 KMs) with various receipts for invoices from 2018 up to present day. In 1998 this 500E was imported to the UK, & having passed through the hands of several collectors, in 2001 found its long term custodian. It appears the car was kept in dry storage for over a decade as part of a collection, covering nominal mileage during that time. In January 2018 ownership passed to a family member of his with the same surname. As part of our preparation process this iconic W124 500E has just received a full service by a leading Mercedes-Benz service specialist, who provided the car with various OEM parts to ensure that this rare example drives and presents at its best. As part of this ‘refreshment’ the car has received a replacement rear subframe, suspension bushes & various components etc and is a rust free example. Now for a bit of history on this model..The 500E/E500 (W124.036) models were produced from 1990 to 1995 as Mercedes-Benz' high-performance version of the W124. Due to Mercedes' engineering department being completely occupied developing the new S-Class W140, Mercedes-Benz commissioned Porsche in 1989 to redesign the W124 chassis to accommodate the M119 5.0L V8 engine, as used in the SL R129, along with the required changes to the suspension system and drive train. A true icon within the history of Mercedes Benz was born, and a prequel to the AMG cars of today. This particular example presents superbly.
