Lot '29: Mercedes-Benz 230CE Coupe

One of two Mercedes W123 Class coupes in our sale today, this 230CE model is fitted with the fuel-injected 2.3-litre four-cylinder engine which produced around 134bhp and 148lb/ft of torque, sufficient to propel the car to a top speed of 118mph.

Supplied new by Howells of Worcester in June 1983 and still with its original delivery check sheet, it has been in the current ownership since 1991. The car has covered around 92,000 miles from new but the speedo was replaced at 63,000 miles so the current reading is only 29,000 miles. Always well cared for, it comes with a good service history and was last serviced about 7,000 miles ago. Said to be in good condition all round with a particularly clean interior, it is also fitted with a Sony CD player and has a current MOT.
