Looking Gorgeous!
We took our newly arrived 1980 230 Saloon to the Mercedes-Benz Club National W123 day in North Yorkshire on 23 August and were delighted to win the Richard Sturman trophy for Best Car in Show, out of approximately 40 W123 saloons, coupes and estates entered by keen owners. The judges commented particularly on the complete originality and freshness of the car’s presentation.

We only got to hold the trophy for a few minutes as it had to go back to the club to be engraved then replaced in the trophy cabinet, but we did get an engraved silver plate to keep, which will go with the car to its new owner when we sell it.
