This 1976 one owner W115 230.4 with only 82,000 Km on the clock was put away in 2003 when the owner became too old to drive, and hadn’t turned a wheel since. On the instruction of the now deceased owner’s son we pulled it out of it’s garage in November 2020 and mechanically recommissioned it.
Thanks to perfect dry storage conditions the vehicle structure was still in excellent condition at 45 years old, and no repairs were necessary. It’s all set to go to auction soon, probably at the H&H sale at Buxton in May 2021, if not sold beforehand.

Rip Van W115

MB Tex interior still very nice

Byzantine Gold metallic – would benefit from a repaint
