1981 Mercedes Benz #1943-HOU

Gateway Classic Cars Houston showroom is excited to present this awesome 1981 Mercedes-Benz 240D for sale. Powered by a stout, reliable 4-cylinder diesel engine that’s backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission, this 240D features what many regard as one of Mercedes-Benz’s most bulletproof powertrains. Built on Mercedes’ W123 platform, this is one car that has a long reputation for being solidly built and rock-solid reliable. Not noted as one of the snappier-performing W123’s, the 240D could still cruise all day at a steady 85MPH and bring home nearly 30MPG fuel economy at the same time. This beige 240D sports a tan synthetic leather interior (know by some as “M-B Tex“), and its overall condition is in very good shape. A Becker Europa AM/FM/Cassette radio provides audio entertainment for its occupants. When an onlooker takes everything in, from the exterior to the interior, they’ll be hard-pressed to believe that this car is 40 years old. It has survived amazingly well because it has been very well taken
