This 300GDS has the very reliable 3.0L OM 617 inline-5 diesel engine, mated to a 5-speed transmission.
Brakes are in great shape, all have been replaced relatively recently.
Full MOT history can be found online.
Overall, this is a very clean and well sorted example. It will need some love and care to bring it back to its original glory but it has been very well maintained by all of its previous owners.
Currently, the RPM gauge works on and off. The odometer briefly stopped working for a period of time so mileage is not 100% accurate, though, not far off at all. It is currently working agin.
Runs and drives well. Shifts very smooth through all gears and clutch feels perfect. It could use a suspension refresh and an alignment. It currently has a very small power steering leak.
There is some rust bubbling on hood, around the windshield and a few small areas here and there. All in all the body is very straight and well kept.
This is a very rare example of an early W463 model. I have not seen another one from this era with such nice options. It is truly a blast to drive and brings you back to a different time.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Happy to hep arrange shipping to anywhere in the world as well.
