The seller offers for sale this 1993 Mercedes-Benz (W124) 300CE-24 Cabriolet, powered by a 3.0-liter six-cylinder petrol engine. This elegant convertible has been with its current owner since 2002 and has been used sparingly as a weekend car. It has not been driven in rain for over 15 years and has always been stored in a garage. The original paint remains in good condition, with only minor stone chips. The black leather interior and wood trim are well preserved, showing minimal wear. The car retains its original Becker radio (included but replaced by another unit), while the trip and temperature displays require minor repair. The cruise control is non-functional, and the right rear part of the soft top slightly sags—a common issue on this model. Mechanically, it runs smoothly without smoke or noise, and the gearbox shifts correctly. The vehicle is fitted with an LPG system and a tow hook; the spark plugs need adjusting for LPG operation.
The W124 Cabriolet, introduced in 1991, represents one of Mercedes-Benz’s finest engineering achievements. Combining the strength of the E-Class platform with timeless design and open-top luxury, it offered both comfort and durability. Its 24-valve six-cylinder engine provided refined power delivery, while the advanced chassis ensured a composed ride. Built to the highest standards, the 300CE-24 Cabriolet became a symbol of understated prestige and reliability. Today, it is one of the most desirable young classics from the brand’s golden era, appreciated for its craftsmanship, long-term value, and usability.
The soft top is original and operates properly, with only minor tension adjustment needed on one side. It closes securely and complements the car’s elegant profile.

Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible cars to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be hard to see even upon visual inspection. Unless there is an explicit statement by the seller to the contrary, please assume that any vehicle could have had bodywork or paintwork. Photographs may not reflect the exact true colour or exact full condition of the vehicle. It is a bidder’s responsibility to assure themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy.
