88 300E 5 Speed & 88 300CE
F/S 1988 300CE Black/Gray 160k miles $3250 in PA
I am putting up a feeler on my 88 300CE. I have done many many upgrades and repairs and it s currently running great. It is about to turn over 160k miles and is my daily driver. This car has heated seats which work. The reason for the sale is that I have decided to get a car loan and get a newer and more practical daily driver and would use this as a down payment. This is a very nice driving car. Very tight and smooth and quiet.
Inspected through the end of the year. I drove this car From PA to Miami and back 3 months ago. No problems.
This is a short list of modifications and repairs that have been performed on the vehicle to give you an idea of the condition of the car.
Bilstein HDs all around
new front strut tops
CLK lightweight wheels
Bosch cap and rotor, wires and backing plate
Correct non resistor plugs
Keyless entry and remote start although remote start portion is not hooked up
94-95 taillights
91 coupe rear fill panel
hella euro front corner lights
newer tierods and drag link
4 wheel alignment 2 months ago
new muffler and pipe
new injectors
w210 steering wheel
SLK shifter knob and shifter base
Rebuilt top end with new cam, rockers, seals, guides and head gasket.
New water pump
140 amp alternator upgrade
DEPO headlights
new pads and slotted rotors all around
all new radiator hoses including those that go to/from the heater core
newer radiator nissen
new overflow tank
new belts
new front oil seal
new oil pressure sensor
new exhaust manifold studs
new air bypass hoses
new bosch idle control valve
new fuel pump relay
new condenser and dryer and the car has been converted to 134a although I had the system filled 3 months ago and it must have a leak as the system is empty again
flushed and refilled trans, power steering, rear diff, brake fluid, etc.
replaced rear diff bushings.
HD drivers side engine mount with new motor mounts
Audio:
JVC flip face cd player
Blaupunkt component front speaker set
Orion 4 channel amp and 10" Blau sub in sealed box
Euro front plate delete
I also acquired a very rare factory roof rack and have a thule ski rack attachment for it. Rack cost me $300 and it is an extra $250 item over the $3.25k firm price.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Yes it shifts great although it has the standard for the w124 reverse delay of about 1 sec when shifting from drive to reverse. Its been that way since I bought the car. It goes through all the gears just as you would expect. Im not selling the car because it isnt a good driver. Im selling because I bought a new car and now dont really drive this car.
I get 16 city/ 23 highway. Mixed driving maybe 18
