I am driving the car until sold so mileage will be a little higher
Dorian is a beautiful classic Mercedes sedan. In almost as new condition. A great daily driver. Reliable. Stunning.
Anthracite gray metallic original paint code 172G. It"s an extremely gorgeous color combo. Pics don"t do the car justice.
The car is a two owner vehicle with service records, original booklets, registration records etc.
Documented miles. The car was sitting in non op status for years so it feels like a step back in time. Stunning car.
The price on the car is based on the rarity, condition, color, miles, original wheels, service records and Nada and Hagerty valuation guide. You will not see one as clean as this. It doesn"t get much better. This year of production, built in last quarter of 1983 and rolled out of the factory in Germany to be shipped to California, is hailed by W123 collectors as the best year for this car. It is an original California car with no undercarriage rust, no leaks and with everything working.

I reserve the right to remove the auction at any time for any reason. I strongly urge interested parties to contact me as it seems as this perhaps is the best way to get the car.
Ebay prohibits the removal of an auction within 24 hours of its completion so if you contact me with cash offers please do not wait until the last minute. This car is going up in value every year. This is a rare car. I would not be surprised at all if the "buy it now" option is applied to this auction as the car is very fairly priced. Do your research.
