Beautiful Red 1982 Mercedes Benz 300CD-T Coupe in CA
 

This Beautiful Red 1982 Mercedes Benz 300CD Turbo Diesel Coupe is up for sale. Although it has sentimental value (my first 'Benz), I have too many cars now, and need to sell some. The car has approx. 202,500 miles on it with a working odometer. The engine usually starts first time, and the 4 speed automatic transmission shifts good. It has been adjusted to shift a little harder. The air conditioning blows cold with recent new compressor, drier, and 134A refrigerant. The paint is about 60% original, with the doors and fenders painted by previous owner (some clear coat peeling on passenger side). It has a Blaupunkt CD/AM-FM radio, but no antenna. The interior is very nice with only a few small cracks in the dash, a sagging headliner by the back window, and a few other minor imperfections. Has a recent new windshield and gasket. The passenger door lock vacuum element needs replacing (cause of vacuum leak). The TURBODIESEL emblem is off, and needs the little fasteners to hold it on. Any other questions or photos, call Rich (626) 824-4404 Located in So. Cal.
Asking $4,500

The color combo of this one makes it mighty tempting.

Sentimental value is a precious thing.

That was the year I was there, right?

that coupe is beautiful. wish mine was half as nice. bump for a sweet ride

Yes I think it was. I think it was when Colin was here and we drove up to the mountains.

Patrick, your photography has a way of making everything look better than it actually is! I don't know about the guy in this photo, but the car sure looks great!

Rich, we both know this 300CD is really nice. :)

It's a fast one too!
 

I like this one best. Also one of Patrick's IIRC.

When a member's car is for sale, we relive the memories as a tribute.

This was taken before going for three laps 'round the circuit:

The car that is third in line (in front of the coupe) belongs to user Rudolf Diesel. His car now has a supercharger AND a bigger turbo (intercooled). It is VERY fast!

Didn't you drive this red 300CD at the last gtg / drive over the Ortega Highway?

Yes, second photo on post #3. That is the day I had filter issues. A new filter makes a world of difference!

Now that is a sexy car! I love the red on black. Why are all y'all so far from Texas??

I have not seen another the same color combo. Sounds like you need do do a road trip!
