1994 mercedes w124 e280 for sale, lowered with AMG wheels.
Good points:
lots of tax and test

autobox changes/ kicks down with no issues
Genuine AMG 16" alloys with 205/45 tyres

reasonably clean bodywork for year, although not perfect
everything works, gets me where i want to go
very recent brand new rear shocks
reliable car, happy to drive it anywhere, just watch out for them bumps!!
Bad points (PLEASE READ!!)
due to previous owner never sending me any, i have no service history for this car, just v5, MOT and tax.
when i bought the car it came with a CRACKED SUMP, which i was not told about by previous owner , i have drained the oil and covered it up with JB WELD, its holding up fine and has for a few thousands miles. although i must warn you, the car is low and if that sump gets caught again its game over!!
its lowered on cut springs!! which are very cut, (lol) the ride is okay but can be quite bouncy at times, but it keeps me awake.
this car is pretty damn low!! so it has to be driven carefully or you will kill it!!
sometimes from cold in the morning the car needs a bit of throttle to start and misfires for about 20-30 seconds , onces its clear it runs fine.
every now and then, not too often mind, the engine will hunt on idle a bit. no idea why , but has never caused me a problem just a tad annoying.
the front bumper is scratched , there is the odd mark and scratch around the car but its old!
the drivers seat bolster has a hole worn in it, rest of the seat is fine.
Armrest and streering wheel are a bit worn too.
got a flat tyre on the rear the other day so its rolling on its genuine AMG spare with a bigger tyre, will try and get it replaced or can work a deal with buyer.
overall its a decent car which gets alot of looks but could do with a lil tidying/ tweaking to get it nicer. I'm just happy to roll about in it as it is.
id recommend viewing the car as pictures do it justice as with everything.
and if you have any questions please send me a message.
open to reasonable offers , but nothing rediculous.
here's a few pictures of the car, if you want any specific ones let me know and ill take em and post em up.
thanks,
alisdair
