1996 | Mercedes-Benz E 320

An exceptional example of an E320 Coupé. Rarely can you find these cars with such a desirable set of attributes as this one. Just 44k miles from new backed up by a full service history, perfect colours – Azurite Blue with Mushroom leather – and an ideal specification including air conditioning, cruise control, electric seats and heated seats.

First registered in February 1996 by Mertrux of Derby to its first owner, Mrs Elliott, who acquired it ten days later, so we assume it was pre-registered by Mertrux. She kept the car seven years, at which point it was sold again by Mertrux under their Signature used car scheme to a gentleman who only kept it two years before it was sold to its next owner, Mr Dixon, in December 2005 through a classic Mercedes specialist. At this point the car had only covered 32k miles, and thanks to Dixon’s sparing use in his retirement, this has only increased to just over 44k miles when he parted company in 2023.

The car comes with all its original books and manuals, two remote keys, tool kit and first aid kit.

It has a full service history with 14 stamps in the service book and a folder full of supporting paperwork – bills, previous V5s and MoT certificates. We have recently serviced the car and the MoT with records no advisories.

This E320 is in immaculate condition throughout. Its gleaming Azurite paintwork has just been two-stage machine polished and is near flawless. The 8-hole alloy wheels have been refurbished in their correct diamond-cut finish and wear all new Michelin tyres. The interior is incredible, showing no wear or fade and retains its MB over mats. Needless to say, this car drives beautifully.

This is without doubt one of the best E320 Coupé we have ever offered for sale. It combines very low mileage with perfect provenance and the perfect colour and spec combination.
