1995 Mercedes-Benz W124 Coupe | Preston, Lancashire

A 1995 Mercedes-Benz W124 Coupe, the two-door C124 in the 124 series. It is liked for its pillarless side glazing and a body shorter and lower than the saloon's, which gives a solid executive car the easy manner of a grand tourer. From 1993 the range carried the E-Class name. This car is an E220 with a 2.2-litre petrol engine, in very good condition. The paintwork is satin Viper green, set against cream leather that lifts the cabin in photographs. With the side windows lowered, the frameless glass leaves the interior in clear view from outside the car. It seats four, with the settled, well-built feel of a mid-1990s Mercedes. Film and TV work set in the 1990s gets a period executive car for street scenes and arrivals, its clean, low lines reading clearly on location. Photographers and fashion and editorial teams get green against cream, a strong pairing, and the open side glass helps interior shots. Events suit its formal profile, and it also serves weddings and anniversary hires. The car is based in Preston, Lancashire.
