1991 Mercedes-Benz AMG

This 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300TE was modified by AMG when new, and it is powered by a 24-valve 3.4L M104 inline-six mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. The wagon was imported to the US during previous ownership, and it shows 147k kilometers (~91k miles). Finished in metallic silver over black leather, it has 17″ Evo-style wheels, heated and power-adjustable front sport seats, a Sony stereo with Bluetooth connectivity, and rear-facing third-row seats. Engine, exhaust, transmission, and interior repairs totaling ~$20k were completed in 2023 by ISSIMI Meccanica of San Carlos, California. This AMG-modified S124 is now offered by the selling dealer in California with a clean Montana title. The car was finished at the factory in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744), and it has AMG valances and side skirts in addition to headlight wipers, fender-mounted indicator lights, roof rails, and dual AMG exhaust finishers that were fitted in 2023. Six-spoke 17″ wheels are mounted with 235/45 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires. Acceleration Skid Control (ASR) and anti-lock disc brakes are noted. An alignment was completed in October 2023. The heated and power-adjustable front sport seats are trimmed in black leather, and burred walnut wood trim accents the cabin, which has an electric sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, a split-folding second row bench, and a Bluetooth-capable Sony stereo with a USB port. Upholstery was re-adhered and the driver’s interior door handle was repaired in 2023, and the center console trim was replaced. Mounted on a power-adjustable column, an airbag steering wheel frames the instrument cluster, which has an AMG-branded 280-km/h speedometer. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows 147k kilometers (~91k miles). A mileage inconsistency is listed in a December 2022 entry on the Carfax report, which states that it may be the result of a clerical error. Modified by AMG to displace 3.4 liters, the 24-valve M104 inline-six was rated at approximately 276 horsepower and 243 ft-lb of torque when new, and it sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission, which was serviced with replacement fluid and adjustment of its Bowden cable in 2023. Work in the past year also included refurbishing the fuel distributor, adjusting the exhaust system and throttle-linkage assembly, and replacing vacuum hoses and an oxygen sensor along with the intake manifold gasket, fuel injector seals, air-flow meter potentiometer, idle air control valve, and associated hoses.
