Basic Information and History

Here is your chance to acquire a very well-preserved and rare 1993 Mercedes-Benz 400 E – a model that not only offers luxury and comfort, but also impressive performance thanks to its V8 engine. This car was imported from Germany and has had a total of two previous owners. The current odometer reading is 182,232 km, although this cannot be fully verified with complete documentation.

This vehicle is an excellent example of a so-called "sleeper" – entirely debadged and with a discreet exterior that gives no hint of the power under the hood. Only the dual exhaust pipes suggest what lies beneath.

Equipment and Options

This example is very well-equipped and comes with an impressive range of factory-installed comfort and luxury features:

1. Leather upholstery
2. Orthopedic electrically adjustable seats
3. Dual-zone climate control
4. Stereo with CD changer
5. Electric sunroof
6. Electrically adjustable rear sunshade
7. ABS brakes
8. Dual airbags
9. Central locking
10. Electrically adjustable steering wheel
11. Traction and stability control
12. Power windows front and rear
13. Electrically adjustable side mirrors
14. Cruise control
15. Vanity mirrors
16. Heated seats
17. Heated washer nozzles
18. Power steering
19. Power antenna

Condition

The bodywork is in excellent condition with no rust or major damage. There is an 8–10 cm long scratch on the trunk lid that has previously been touched up – it is subtle but visible in certain lighting. Otherwise, the paintwork is in very good condition with only minor marks from automatic car washes.

The interior is in exceptional condition, especially considering the car's age and mileage. Seats, panels, dashboard, controls, and buttons are all in excellent shape. The headliner is flawless, and the overall interior gives an almost showroom-like impression.

The wheels are unmarked, and the tires are brand new. Chrome trim, headlight lenses, emblems, and moldings are all of very high quality.

The underside of the car is in outstanding condition – it has never been driven in snow and appears to have rarely seen rain. Photo documentation from the MHRF inspection is available.

Summary

This is an unusually fine Mercedes-Benz 400 E – a collector’s piece with a powerful V8, high comfort level, and a discreet exterior. The car has been praised by both the MHRF inspection official and workshop staff for its outstanding condition, especially underneath.

For those seeking a sleeper with character and history, yet still feeling fresh behind the wheel, this is an opportunity that doesn’t come often.
