Diesel price tags-back in the heyday.
Does anybody have pricing information on the w116, w123, w124 w126 original dealer prices in the 80's? i mean the diesels of course.
I am interested in learning about the actual sale prices of our vehicles here in the us back when they first came out. Ep Last edited by europower; 10-15-2009 at 01:34 AM. |

45-50k range for the W126 diesels, probably similar for the W116....W123's were in the 30-40k range. Expensive considering inflation.

Base prices before options: (NADA Guide)
1971 220D Approximately $5,500 1975 300D Aprox. $12,200 1977 240D Aprox. $12,800 1978 300SD Aprox. $23,600 1978 450SL Aprox. $26,500 1983 240D Aprox. $24,000 1980 300SD Aprox. $30,600 1981 300SD Aprox. $34,100 1985 300SD Aprox. $39,500 1987 300SDL Aprox. $47,000 1987 300D Aprox. $39,500 Prices are for standard models, with no extra price options. In some years there were multiple price increases between the start and end of a model year. My 1983 300SD Cost about $41k with options. In 86 with 51k miles on it, I paid $27,900 and felt like I was getting a great deal. For comparisons sake. A 1972 220D, cost about the same as a Cadillac DeVille. A 1972 DeVille weighed about 4700lbs and had something like 385HP. Both were priced around $6,500.

My 91 350SDL stickered at almost $58,000... and it doesn't have any options except for metallic paint IIRC exchange rates had taken a huge hit in 91. For comparison my 92 ECOdiesel was probably stickered at $13,400 and my fully loaded 91 was only $13,500 (guess the exchange rates sucked more in 92?)

We looked at a new 240D Fall of 76
This was at the Dealer in Phoenix, AZ and it was a pretty basic 240D and sticker price was less then $11000.00 and that is what they were selling for. It was the first W123 I had seen Still a lot of money when the typical Chebby Cabrice was selling at around $6000.00.

My '82's was low 20s ($22 or 23k) I want to get a sticker for the '87. Can they get those at the dealer, or is it classic center only?
