Sensibly priced E500 (124)

[500E]

Mercedes E500 (designed by porsche) | eBay

Looks like a nice motor apart from the dodgy grille and if you don't mind blue...

Probably been sitting around (flat tyre etc) but if you can get a deal it might be a nice buy.

Early 500E too which is quite nice

I think that Blue would look a lot nicer in real life.

Listed by someone who doesn't know e-bay very well - no details at all other than it's blue. Bring on the onslaught of questions!

4 Seat option -rare?

All 500E's have 4 seats mate. And obviously all LHD.

Yes, lots of questions but a good buy for £5k mark IMO.

Quite rare in blue aswell, most are charcoal black.

So, if it's a good buy at £5k, what's it like at the circa £7k asking price?

If they did a RHD I would have one of these. I just don't fancy left hookers.

Probably too much. Blue of all things, very little history, tow eye missing, one wing mirror is the wrong colour, flat tyre and no MOT and Tax.

Quick chat with the owner and he said he will put MOT on.

The guy is a car dealer who bought it off the owner, so no real idea behind how the car was maintained, regular oil changes etc.

Looks like the owner has had it since it came into the UK in 2004, which is a good sign:

Manufacturer: MERCEDES
Type: Standard Car
Colour: BLUE
Year: 1991
Reg. Date: 06/12/2004
Engine Size: 5000 cc
Fuel: PETROL
Previous Owners: 0

Might be a good buy but way too far away for me to check out...

Cheers,
Bill

I dont mind the blue paintwork.... Its the matching blue interior thats putting me off.... Black would have been so much better.
