Mercedes W123 250

The 1980 Mercedes 250 W123, affectionately known as "the Barrel," is a true symbol of solidity and elegance in German automotive engineering. Since it first rolled off the assembly line in 1975 until the end of its production in 1986, nearly 2.7 million units were produced, making this model one of the most popular and recognizable in the brand's history. At the height of its success, the W123 was a bestseller in the German market, despite never being cheap – its robust construction and unmatched quality were worth every mark, and beautifully maintained examples still fascinate collectors and classic car enthusiasts.

The presented example is a Mercedes 250 W123 in the stunning Mimosengelb (618) color – one of the most sought-after and unique shades offered by the Mercedes factory as a special order. It is in excellent condition, with a low mileage of just 51,000 km. The interior of the car impresses with equally beautiful olive trim that perfectly complements the elegant lines of the body. Under the hood, it features a six-cylinder petrol engine with a capacity of 2.5 liters and 140 HP, ensuring a comfortable and smooth ride, perfectly suited to the character of this classic.

Among the equipment, we find a sunroof, self-leveling suspension (nivo), central locking, power steering, and a tow hitch. The car also has a non-adjustable catalytic converter, emphasizing its original character. The Mercedes 250 W123, thanks to its unique configuration and equipment, offers exceptional driving comfort, both in the city and on longer journeys. This is a car that keeps the spirit of the '80s alive while combining construction solidity with elegance and comfort.

The history of this example is as interesting as the car itself. It was purchased in February 2024 during an exhibition in Bremen from a well-known German collector – an employee of Mercedes-Benz and podcaster. The car comes with complete documentation, including a service book, an invoice binder, and the order from the showroom along with the purchase receipt. Every detail of this vehicle is kept in immaculate condition – from the paint, through the olive upholstery, to the chassis and engine. All components are in perfect condition, as if the car has just left the factory – with no signs of wear or sun exposure.

This example has also undergone a series of service works, including carburetor refurbishment, oil changes, filter replacements, spark plugs, and a new Mercedes battery. The car is registered with white plates featuring the unique number 123, which further emphasizes its uniqueness. For classic car enthusiasts, this is a true gem that not only delights in appearance but also offers the full original driving experience of years gone by.

The price of PLN 145,000 reflects not only the excellent technical and visual condition of this Mercedes but also its value as a collectible vehicle, which in such configuration and with such low mileage is a true rarity on the market. The "Barrel" in Mimosengelb color is a symbol of reliability, comfort, and class, ideal for a collector seeking a vehicle in top condition, ready to drive or to further nurture as part of a unique collection.
