Description

I bought the vehicle from a private seller in August 2019. I bought the vehicle as it is now, with all modifications. The vehicle is in perfect condition. Two previous owners. No rust, was completely restored in 2019. Small oil loss on the front and rear axles. No service book available, no invoices available. There are no original parts. It is driven a maximum of once a week. It is a diesel vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

This 1993 Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé is 16+ years old, which moves it into project / collectible / hand-me-down territory. Pricing in this band has more to do with condition and rarity than age. Inspect for rust, frame integrity, and electrical wear — none of which the 1993 fuel-economy spec sheet will warn you about.

This listing is below the typical mileage band for a 1993 Mercedes-Benz — most 230 - 300 CE Coupés of this age show closer to 15-20k km/year. Low mileage is a price-supporting attribute but verify the odometer hasn't been rolled back (check service records and inspection-station logs in Germany).

Germany, Germany is a smaller market — comparable Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé listings are scarce, so this pickup_truck can carry a small premium for buyers who can't find local alternatives. Be transparent about condition; buyers who travel for a listing typically expect what they see in the photos.

For this diesel Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé, focus on DPF (diesel particulate filter) condition and any history of regen-cycle issues — short-trip diesels often clog DPFs early. Also check EGR cleanliness, turbocharger play, and injector codes via OBD-II. Diesel auxiliary equipment (glow plugs, fuel filter) wears on a schedule independent of the engine.

Insurance in Germany is a private-carrier market. For a premium-tier Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé in Germany, expect 4-8% of the market value per year for full coverage. The biggest cost-driver is the city — Germany rates can be meaningfully higher than rural Germany for the same Mercedes-Benz.

Diesel fuel in Germany typically runs near or just under gasoline. This 230 - 300 CE Coupé's real advantage is fuel economy on long highway runs — for short-trip city use, a diesel's break-even versus a gasoline equivalent is many years out.

This is a private-seller listing. For a premium-tier purchase like this Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé, the buyer usually pre-arranges financing with their own bank or credit union — get pre-approval before contacting the seller. The seller will typically wait for funds to clear before signing over the title.

In Germany, Germany, you'll need the original title signed over by the seller, a bill of sale, a current emissions / safety inspection where required by Germany, a VIN-match verification, and proof of insurance to take possession. The state DMV or motor-vehicle agency processes the transfer; many do it the same day.

This is a private-seller listing — an individual selling their own Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé, not a business. Treat it like any other person-to-person purchase: meet in a safe public location (a police-station parking lot is the gold standard), verify the seller's ID against the title before any money changes hands, and never wire funds before seeing the vehicle in person.

A 16+ year-old Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé is past its depreciation trough — pricing from here is condition-driven, not age-driven. Documented examples of desirable trims can appreciate; rough examples stay flat or depreciate as parts availability tightens. Set the price by recent comparable sold prices, not by asking prices.

On a premium-tier listing, negotiation room varies more by the seller's hold-time than by buyer pressure. Ask when the listing went live — anything past 30 days usually means the seller is open to a 7-10% reduction. Also inspect service records: missing entries are a legitimate price-reduction lever.

If the seller still owes a bank or finance company against this Mercedes-Benz 230 - 300 CE Coupé, the title has a lien recorded. Do NOT hand over funds before the lien is released. Standard practice in Germany: buyer's bank pays the lender directly for the loan balance and pays the seller for the remainder, with the lender's release letter arriving alongside the new title. Verify the lien status through whatever public registry Germany uses (DMV / DETRAN / Registro Civil / etc.) before agreeing to a purchase price.
