Notable features include the Euro headlights and bumpers, which give the car a distinctive, sleek look compared to the US-spec models. The original heated seats and rear headrests add comfort for all passengers, while the heated rear window and headlight washer/wipers offer convenience in colder or wet weather. A manual sliding sunroof brings an open-air feel to the cabin, and the rare chrome luggage rack crossbars add a vintage touch that sets this car apart from others on the road. Inside, the wood veneer dashboard brings an air of refinement and craftsmanship, complementing the overall quality of the cabin. The 1980 280TE also boasts a number of functional and practical features, making it ideal for long trips or daily use. The car is fitted with ice-cold air conditioning, which has been converted to R134 refrigerant for modern convenience, ensuring that you stay comfortable no matter the weather. For additional nostalgia and simplicity, the vehicle retains manual crank windows, a feature that harkens back to a time when vehicles were designed with a more straightforward and mechanical approach. The car rides on 14-inch Bundt rims, a signature wheel design that enhances its classic appeal, making it as attractive as it is functional. Meticulously maintained and cared for, this 1980 Mercedes-Benz 280TE Wagon is a superb example of the legendary W123 series, a model known for its longevity, durability, and timeless design. Imported to Louisiana as part of a collection of Euro cars, it has been kept in top condition, and its extensive service history reflects the attention and care it has received over the years.
