Imported from Japan and subsequently sold by Specialist Cars of Tockwith, Yorkshire, this E220 comes with its original Japanese service manual in kilometres and registers some 49,000 miles from new. Serviced in the UK by marque specialists Merc-Pro Ltd of Wymondham in 2016-17 it then spent a period in storage. A new radio and aerial along with a tracker were fitted in 2016. A new air-conditioning blower was also installed that same year along with a new window switch and correct specification pollen filters. Following its emergence from storage in 2025 a new battery, fuel pump and filter were fitted and the car valeted.
The introduction of the 200E and 220E models in 1992 made the Mercedes-Benz E-Class W124 bodyshell available with the smaller, more economical engines of the ‘Compact’ C-Class. These new engines featured twin overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder, and variable inlet timing. Thus Mercedes claimed their more efficient combustion improved fuel economy and reduced emissions. In October 1993 the ‘E’ became a prefix rather than a suffix and the cars were mildly face-lifted, the most obvious change being a frame-less grille recessed into the bonnet panel. In this form the model lasted only two years, being replaced in mid-1995 by the W120.
