Available for auction is this 1994 Mercedes-Benz W124 E420 finished in Malachite Green Metallic over a beige leather interior. Widely recognized for its robust build quality, the W124 was launched in the 1986 model year and was marketed through 1995. The E420 model was produced during the two final years and featured a version of the M119 V8 engine found in the iconic 500E sport sedan. This two-owner 1994 example is believed to have spent its life between New York and New Jersey, and came factory equipped with heated front seats, automatic climate control, an electric sliding sunroof, and more. Having recently undergone a full inspection, this rare E420 is now being offered for auction by its seller out of New York while showing just under 63k miles on the odometer.
This W124 comes finished in Malachite Green Metallic and features include headlight wipers, asymmetrical side mirrors, a power antenna, a panoramic windshield wiper, and 15” alloy wheels. The exterior is described to be in good overall condition with signs of wear including some cracking in the finish and scratches on the bumpers. A collection of detailed images can be found in the gallery along with clean CARFAX and paint meter readings.
The cabin is trimmed in beige leather with matching carpeting and burl wood trim on the console, dashboard, and door panels. Amenities include climate control, cruise control, heated power seats, power windows and locks, and an upgraded radio head unit. The seller notes imperfections including minor discoloration, wear on the leather surfaces, and inoperable door locks and sunroof.
Power comes from a 4.2-liter M119 V8 which was factory rated at up to 282 HP and 295 lb-ft of torque. The rear wheels are driven by way of a 4-speed automatic transmission. The CARFAX report includes five service history records dating back as far as the year 2000, and the seller adds that an oil and filter service was recently carried out along with the installation of a new exhaust system and wiring harness.
This sale will include a clean title.

@Globalcartizen certainly possible, I didn't own it in the summer so couldn't tell you for sure. I can assure you that if it is the same car, it is in far better condition now then it was then! If you are local please come see it! we welcome any interested parties to do so.
@NoMoNaples yes checked the fuses. And I will apologize, I typically sort all of this stuff out before selling, however, time has been limited. The important mechanical stuff is all done hence the recent invoice in the gallery. I feel confident that there will not be the need to address anything mechanically upon purchase.
Now we are getting somewhere.

I don't love the green but the car is relatively low miles and everything I have read online is that these are solid tanks - other than the biodegradable harnesses.
Stupid Mercedes trying to be environmentally sensitive.
@11JM The exhaust looks great. And I don't have to worry about emissions checks here so I am horribly concerned if it has some minor leaks.
As you said, sunroof and power door locks can be fixed as time allows. I assume you did the obvious and checked the fuses already.
@NoMoNaples the rust you are seeing is on the heat shield only. Please let me know if there is anything additional you would like photographed, this is a VERY SOLID CAR UNDERNEATH! Bid with confidence.
@NoMoNaples hello. I am 99% sure it is the pump located in the trunk that controls the locks and it is a very easy installation. I simply hadn't found time to source a good used part.If you win the car and want some assistance with installing it I have no issue trying to help with that. The sunroof part is also located in the trunk and is easy access to replace as per the previous owner. The essentials are all there for a very nice driver grade car. This car runs and drives impeccably well, this little stuff can be easily sorted.
@W124Lover sorry for the delay, the main harness is the one that was replaced as listed on the receipt. The car runs and drives amazing and we invite you to see it prior to bidding if feasible for you. Thank you for the interest.
Exhaust looks new behind the cats but pretty rusted ahead of the cats.
Receipts are illegible except for the distributor one. Where is the receipt for the replaced wiring harness? Can you redo all of the receipts but much cleaner so we can see what was actually done and when?
Thank you!

Inoperable door locks? Sunroof is an annoyance. Functional door locks is more serious. BOTH doors?
Bid in the amount of $1,000

@11JM is that just the main engine harness, or all three? Throttle body, aka ETA, and starter? Starter is an easy one, but the throttle body one is upwards of $600, rebuilt. Which do you have knowledge of being replaced?
The wire harness in this car was previously addressed by the former owner.
@11JM records are extremely hard to see, asked just to verify. Thanks though. And I did not see an answer about the biodegradable wiring harnesses, nor can I make it out on the service records.
@W124Lover ac is ice cold! Records are at the end of the gallery. Thanks for the interest!!
@W124Lover hi
No, the structure of the car is very sound with no rust. Can add any additional photos at your request as well as accommodate an inspection prior to bidding

Hi seller. Thanks for the undercarriage pictures. Is there any rust, other than the surface corrosion we see? Do you have any service records on the wiring harnesses being replaced? Does the a/c blow cold through the center vents? @11JM
