AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GENERAL:
Mercedes-Benz W123 200 from 1985 with approximately 184,000 km. A true icon of Mercedes-Benz engineering and one of the most recognizable classic saloons ever built, the W123 platform earned a legendary reputation worldwide for bulletproof reliability, over-engineered build quality, and passenger comfort. The 200 variant features the robust M102 2.0-liter four-cylinder carburetor engine introduced during the mid-cycle update, offering improved efficiency and smooth performance over the earlier M115 engine. Built in the final year of W123 production before being succeeded by the W124, late-model examples like this benefit from all the incremental refinements Mercedes made throughout the model's 10-year production run. This particular example presents very well with a highly original interior, strong mechanical condition, and no accident history.

BODYWORK & PAINT:
The bodywork is straight with no dents, no rust, no areas requiring welding, and no known previous welding repairs. The car has not been involved in an accident. The paintwork has been partially repainted in the past and shows minor scratches, small stone chips, and normal signs of use consistent with the age of the vehicle. Rubber seals are in excellent condition. All windows and glass are complete and very well preserved. Brightwork, exterior chrome trim, and lighting units are in very good condition and function correctly.

TECHNICAL:
Mechanically in very good condition. The brakes, tires, suspension, belts, and clutch are all in very good working order. The engine starts reliably when cold or warm, runs smoothly, and shows no significant oil or coolant leaks. The gearbox operates correctly with smooth gear selection. The car starts, drives, brakes, and shifts as it should, delivering a solid driving experience backed by regular maintenance and servicing.

INTERIOR:
The interior remains original, untouched, and exceptionally well preserved. Seats, upholstery, headliner, dashboard, and door panels are all in very good condition with minimal signs of age and wear. All electrical equipment has been checked and operates as intended, including lighting, indicators, gauges, ventilation system, radio, power windows, and switches.

DOCUMENTS:
Extensive documentation is provided, including official registration documents, original owner's manual, stamped service book, and maintenance invoices detailing its service history.

COLLECTION:
Valla, Sweden.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
