W124 is the Mercedes-Benz internal chassis designation reference for the 1985 to 1995 version of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Due to the high cost of German engineering and build quality, the model was designed to last many miles with awards won by high mileage versions. Front suspension is by way of a separate spring and damper whilst rear suspension features the Mercedes-Benz multi-link axle introduced in 1982 on the 190 and now standard on many modern cars. Much of the 124's engineering, along with many of its features, were advanced automotive technology at introduction and incorporated innovations that were adopted throughout the industry.
This example is presented in Impala Brown with cream cloth interior. This car currently has an electrical fault which will need a Mercedes-Benz specialist to resolve to get this remarkably tidy example running again. It is in very good condition otherwise, with the interior and paint both in extremely good order. The car comes with some service history which includes 12 stamps in its original Mercedes-Benz maintenance booklet, electric factory sunroof and it has four new Bridgestone tyres.
