West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional example of this original southern California 1984 Mercedes-Benz 300CD Turbo Diesel Coupe in completely original and beautiful condition throughout in factory 'Blue Green Metallic Clearcoat' (color code 877) paint with a beautiful 'Palomino' interior and only 96K original miles!
Purchased and originally serviced by original southern California owner at 'Bill Shanley Smythe European Mercedes-Benz' of San Jose, California on 8/11/1984 with all original handbooks and dealers stamped service booklet available with dealer stamped service history from new until 84,588 miles - an extraordinarily rare (and very desirable for any Diesel Mercedes as any enthusiast will attest to) fully documented mileage and service history example of the legendary 300CD. The car was serviced in recent years at the renown 'Mercedes Connection' of Campbell, CA with most recent service at 95,775 miles with service records available.
The car was always garaged and the original factory 'Blue Green Metallic' color paint is in exceptional condition and there are no signs or history of any accidents and the original 'Palomino' interior is also in absolutely gorgeous shape with virtually no signs of wear with the original dashboard and the wood veneer in beautiful original shape (obviously always garaged and covered from the California sun and elements).
The car's factory options include 5 cylinder Turbo Diesel engine, automatic transmission, power assisted steering, power assisted four wheel disc brakes, tinted glass, cruise control, electric window lifts, electrically heated rear window, fully independent suspension, power assisted four wheel disc brakes, anti-lock brakes, automatic antenna, automatic air conditioning with climate control, central locking and factory chrome wheels.
The car drives exactly like such a well maintained and serviced Mercedes Turbo Diesel should and must be seen and driven to be truly appreciated. The 5 cylinder turbo diesel engine is extremely strong and responsive with no noticeable oil leaks, the transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and the temperature always remains cool. All the options are working as they should including the ice-cold A/C and original 'Becker' radio!
Without doubt, this is one of the finest built cars ever made by Mercedes-Benz, now becoming more desirable (with only 25 MPG city and 30 MPG highway) than ever before - certainly you will look long and hard to find a finer head-turning example of this original southern California example with such low original 96K miles and a truly well maintained and always dealer or independent specialist serviced car with every option working as it should available anywhere else!
