Description
The car received additional rust-protection treatment from new and was treated again with Dinitrol a few years ago. Thanks to this protection and careful long-term ownership, the car remains exceptionally solid, with no significant rust issues. The interior has also survived remarkably well and still looks and feels extremely fresh, particularly the seats.
Nice factory equipment includes an electric sunroof, and the car is also fitted with a towbar.
Mechanically, it runs and drives extremely well, with no unusual engine noises and a very solid overall feel. Unfortunately, the original service history was lost by a previous owner. However, older online inspection records support the mileage progression, which currently stands at 212,279 km.
Having seen and inspected many W123s over the years, this is certainly one of the better examples I have come across for a long time.

Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Starts instantly and runs beautifully, with a smooth, stable idle and no unwanted engine noises. The tough 2.0-litre engine has a reputation for being almost bulletproof.
On the road it feels just as a good W123 should – solid, stable and comfortable, with a smooth gearbox and strong brakes. An oil service was completed this year and it has recently passed inspection, valid until 2028-04-30. It is also now road-tax exempt.
Finished off with a smart set of wheels, original-style hubcaps and good tyres. Turn the key and enjoy – this W123 is ready to go. -
Interior condition
The interior is in exceptionally well-preserved condition. Both front and rear seats show virtually no damage and hardly any signs of wear, matched by equally clean door cards, panels, carpets and headliner.
The dashboard and trim are also in excellent condition, with the original gauges and instruments working as they should, complemented by a retro-style Blaupunkt Milano USB radio. The electric sunroof, windows and mirrors all operate correctly.
Step inside and it genuinely feels like sitting in a much newer car. -
Exterior condition
Super presentable and clearly very well cared for, with straight bodywork, no damage and virtually no visible signs of rust – undoubtedly helped by the car’s early rust-protection treatments.
The only point to note is an older painted rust blister on the rear passenger-side inner door frame – see pictures. The underbody is equally impressive, appearing clean, tidy and free from obvious damage.
The paintwork remains bright and clean with a very nice finish, complemented by equally impressive, bright chrome all around. Overall, a remarkably solid and well-preserved car. -
General condition
This is probably one of the best examples I have seen for many years, particularly when it comes to the remarkably well-preserved bodywork and interior. Solid, honest and clearly cared for, it is ready to be driven and enjoyed straight away by its next owner.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
