MOT: December 2024

  • Sought after, UK-supplied, W124 Convertible
  • Part of a private collection since 2019
  • Used for touring around the UK and Europe

Introduced in 1986, the W124-series was arguably the last Mercedes-Benz model range to have its design parameters laid down by engineers rather than accountants. Based around a lighter, stiffer and more aerodynamic bodyshell than its predecessor, the newcomer could be had in saloon, estate, coupe or cabriolet guises. Re-branded as the E-class in 1993, the mid-size Mercedes remained the class benchmark throughout its nine-year European production life. Among the more sporting variants, the E320 Cabriolet was powered by a 3199cc DOHC 24-valve (216bhp/229lbft) straight-six engine allied to automatic transmission. Admirably refined, the model was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in eight seconds and 140mph.

Built to order number 0453750530 for the UK market, chassis WDB1240662C202965 left the factory finished in the handsome combination of Tourmaline Green Metallic with Beige leather upholstery and a Black soft-top. A desirable Sportline model, its specification also included air-conditioning, sports chassis, 8-hole alloy wheels, heated front seats and headlamp wash/wipe. Entering the current (seventh) ownership during 2019, the Mercedes-Benz is said to have proven ‘totally reliable’ whilst undertaking tour-type rallies all around the UK and Europe (its most recent being a two-week sortie to Norway). Marque specialist serviced earlier this month and wearing its 145,000 miles well, this appealing E320 Cabriolet is MOT’d until December and a reluctant sale due to downsizing.
