Exterior:
The exterior of this car is in excellent condition. The original red paint holds an incredible deep gloss that is highly reflective. All of the metal brightwork shows amazing. The rubber trim around the windows are perfect. The glass on this car is all original and chip free. All of the body panels line up perfectly along with the doors and trunk. This car lived a sheltered life and was never involved in an accident!

Interior:
The interior of this car tells the story. Upon opening the door you will be impressed as the seats, carpets, door panels and rugs are in amazing condition. The dash board is flawless with absolutely no cracks present. The gauges are bright and full of color. The rugs are close to new with no rips, tears or stains. The door panels are right on par with the rest of the car with one tiny imperfection. The headliner is perfect. The rear deck carpeting shows no signs of sun damage or flaws. I highly doubt it could get much better than this. This was also a non smokers car so there are no foul odors or smells.
Mechanical:
This car runs, drives and shifts excellent. The steering is straight and accurate along with no vibrations at highway speeds. The brakes are quite impressive as they feel close to new. This car provides an extremely solid ride and there are no squeaks or rattles heard aside from the normal noise from its 4cyl diesel engine. The engine maintains perfect engine temperature and powers this car better than i expected with its manual transmission. This car is equipped with a/c and is currently not working.The belt has been removed because the a/c clutch was making a noise. Upon opening the hood you will be impressed by its clean presence. All of the original stickers are in there location and the engine is free of any leaks. If you look closely at the pictures you will notice how everything still has an original coating that has not been worn or burnt off.
Short Story:
In the world of W123 cars i would safely call this a unicorn. I doubt you will find its twin on the road, at a car show or garage. I have driven a small hand full of 240d manuals and this car feels as though its more powerful. This car was registered, inspected and insured in NY with a clean and clear title. There should be no problem to register and drive this car in any other state. I quickly got used to driving this car only a few blocks on the road. Be prepared to draw a crowd at your local gas station as everyone seems to be impressed by not only the condition but the uniqueness of driving on the opposite side. I must say being a manual and right hand drive makes this car a really fun driving experience. I welcome any serious party near and far to come down and view the car in person.
