Description
Experience the timeless elegance and legendary build quality of Mercedes-Benz’s golden era with this beautiful 1990 300SE, a Japanese-market example of the coveted W126 S-Class imported into the UK in 2015. Known for its refined engineering, superior comfort, and bulletproof reliability, the W126 remains one of Mercedes-Benz’s most respected chassis — and this particular car is an outstanding representative.This 300SE is in exceptional condition. The body is straight, the underneath is clean, and the original paint still shines. The cabin is quiet and refined, with all major features functioning as intended. No sagging headliner, or brittle plastics — a testament to the superior materials used by Mercedes in the late '80s and early '90s. Mechanically, the M103 engine is known for its longevity and smooth character. Starts easily, idles steadily, and pulls cleanly through the rev range. The automatic gearbox shifts confidently, and the suspension soaks up bumps without them being felt in the cabin.Perfect for collectors, daily classic drivers, or anyone looking to own a piece of Mercedes-Benz heritage. This 300SE offers an excellent balance of simplicity and luxury — easier to maintain than its V8 siblings, yet offering the same stately presence and comfort. Whether you’re after a weekend cruiser, a retro executive sedan, or simply a standout example of Mercedes-Benz engineering, this W126 is the perfect example.Complete with its original Mercedes handbooks and service history, this vehicle will be sold with an Autoguard warranty, roadside assistance and an oil and filter service.Finance can also be provided, please call us for more details – 01277 563561.

About us:
Our promise: “We ensure you’ll find your ideal classic car.”
Just moments from the M25, or a 23-minute train ride from London Liverpool Street and the City, our Fairmont Sports & Classics showroom team in Brentwood is committed to changing the way classic vehicles are bought and sold.
Classic models across the decades
Our stocklist – with new vehicles arriving daily – spans popular and iconic vehicles from the 60s through to the late 90s and beyond.
Over two floors we present a curated selection of more than 50 sports and classic cars – plus several motorcycles – all fully inspected, checked and ready to drive away, delivered, or shipped overseas.
We buy well so you’re not at risk
The buying team comprises seasoned motor industry professionals: our backgrounds span retail sales, fleet management, auction, wholesale, and service, inspection and maintenance. Having grown up with, driven and loved countless classics ourselves, we know what our customers look for: models and marques piquing current market interest; examples that are in excellent usable condition and order; and vehicles that represent a sound, good value investment.
An online portal search for any classic model will list several hundred vehicles across the UK. The unfortunate truth is that the vast majority, under scrutiny, will prove sub-standard, misrepresented or require uneconomic restoration or repair. Finding a good vehicle without motor trade experience is not for the faint-hearted.
We purchase our cars from private owners, collections and specialist auction houses. We are exceptionally selective about which vehicles we buy, when and why; we reject over 90% of all those we see. Those we purchase match varying customer demands: ‘best in market’ and fully original; fully or partially restored examples; and sound, practical, fun classics to be driven and enjoyed.
Whether you’re an investor, an enthusiast, or simply keen to recapture your youth, we’d love to help you find your ideal classic.
Warranty:
We want every customer to be confident in their purchase. Whilst we sell nationwide, many of our sales are local, with some customers revisiting to buy, sell or service more vehicles.
To ensure a worry-free motoring experience, we include our own pre-owned vehicle warranty and provide full servicing and support on-site.
The price of every car includes a six-month warranty for major component failure: engine, transmission, and final drive. For the first three months, it covers the cost of any essential parts and labour. Thereafter we provide a 50% discount on any essential parts and labour for the remaining three.
We also operate our own on-site workshop offering specialist classic vehicle servicing, maintenance and repairs. The same mechanics that inspected and prepared your vehicle for sale will be delighted to keep it in good working order throughout your ownership.
