SOLD 1992 500E, Arctic White/cream-Beige, 60kmi, $23k (Texas Hill Country)

[Rogerg]

Hello all..first post here, as I did not even know about this forum until an individual here locally saw my ad on CL here. It is with much hesitation that I am putting this car up for sale. My kids sports activities, and other family obligations regretfully allow me hardly any time to enjoy this car. I have owned it 4 years, and have put approx 3,000 on the odometer. Current reading: 60,700. Had had the 60,000 mile service done, and runs perfectly. Zero leaks of any kind, zero issues. Interior immaculate, never smoked in, and as new. Exterior I will not classify as perfect, only became there are very minor road dings that would be easily touched up. I just have not bothered to do so. Also have original window sticker, and books records, and history. I purchased from local Dr in our area who was meticulous and spared no expense. Originally purchased in Hartford CT on August 28, 1992. According to my records, has spent most of it's life in Texas. Artic White exterior (147 on window sticker) and parchment leather interior.

Price is $22,500. Feel free to contact me initially through email if interested.

Thanks

(promise guys, I am not an idiot, just a bit technically challenged..I did manage to post the pictures on benzworld.org, and there are more pictures on my ad on Austin TX, and Houston TX CL..just need to enter "1992 Mercedes 500E"...

Northeast cars are fine when they haven't been driven in the winter

All Texas cars are great.

Sorry, off topic:
What is that piece of hardware mounted offside the console?

 

[Rogerg]

T-500..that is a Mercedes Benz Navigation Unit.

Interesting way to do it. Thanks!

Hmmm.

I thought I would follow up on my ad, and mention that I am open to "two" trade scenarios if anybody is interested. My family has been nagging me for quite some time to get something more "sporty" for their taste, rather than the ultimate "sleeper" 500E! Wife is wanting a Corvette, while I would prefer a 500SL. If anybody may want to trade a mid to late 90's corvette or 500SL, and cash..This would be open to consideration. My prerequisites would be, the car would, like mine, need nothing, as far as any repair...it MUST be a non-smoking car, and it must NOT be the color green. I would like to at least get 10K cash as well in any sort of a transaction, but this could be open to negotiation depending on the car.
Thanks

For anybody that may be interested, here is a link to some better pictures. I have been politely informed that my iphone pictures leave a bit to be desired

Just following up to inform the car sold today. I miss it already, and it only drove off 30 minutes ago. I know I will get another someday, especially once the kids get to college. Look forward to checking up on this forum at that time!

This car is one of the 23 US-spec "European Delivery" cars with code 707 on the data card.

It is ALSO the very last US-spec 500E for the 1992 model year, before MB flipped over to the 1993 model year.
