The 1987 Mercedes Benz 230 TE is a station wagon of the W124 series, a model series introduced in 1984 and known for its timeless design and wide applicability. The "TE" designation refers to the fuel-injected Touring variant, with the letter "T" standing for the station wagon version within the Mercedes-Benz nomenclature. The 1987 Mercedes Benz 230 TE belongs to the first generation of W124 models and was produced at a time when Mercedes-Benz was strongly committed to technical refinement and passive safety.
The W124 series succeeded the W123 and marked a clear step in aerodynamics and construction. The design was characterized by clean lines and functional styling, paying attention to efficiency and stability. Within the model range, the 1987 Mercedes Benz 230 TE occupied a position as a practical variant with ample load capacity, thanks in part to the rear end and body reinforcements developed specifically for the T-Models.
The station wagon versions of the W124 were produced at the Bremen plant and were known for their solid construction. The rear suspension of the T-Models was modified from the sedan, with a construction suitable for variable loading. This made the 1987 Mercedes Benz 230 TE suitable for a variety of applications, both business and private, without making any concessions to the original design concept of the W124 series.
Within Mercedes-Benz's model history, the W124 occupies a firm place as the successor to the traditional mid-class models of the 1970s and as the precursor to the later E-Class, a name that was officially adopted from 1993. The 1987 Mercedes Benz 230 TE thus falls into the transitional period in which Mercedes-Benz modernized its type designations and further structured its range.
This 1987 Mercedes Benz 230 TE from the year of manufacture 1987 is offered within the context of an auction. In order to get a good impression of the lot we advise you to come to the viewing day.
