AutoHunter Spotlight: 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300TE Wagon

by

One of the hottest segments of the collector car market today, especially with younger buyers, is German station wagons. If you need data to support this, then look at the new BMW M5 wagon, which has outsold the sedan; as I understand it, all 2025 M5 wagons are spoken for. On the classic end of the spectrum, I know of five different collectors who are currently searching to find that perfect example of a Mercedes or BMW station wagon. I’m not talking about the high performance ones—just any Mercedes wagon in excellent condition.

This is harder to do than you would think, as station wagons by their very nature are cars that were used for hauling, work, and basically driven to death. This makes finding a 20, 30, or 40 year-old Mercedes-Benz station wagon in nice condition quite difficult.

Featured on AutoHunter is one of those veritable unicorns, a 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300TE Wagon located in Hingham, Massachusetts.

The seller describes this 300TE wagon as being powered by a 3.0L inline-six mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. Finished in Black over a gray leather interior, this German wagon is now offered by the selling dealer with a clean CARFAX report and clear title. It has covered a total of 167,865, which is low miles for one of these cars. While not perfect, it looks to be an excellent entry point to this category of the hobby.

The car does have some flaws, including a crack in the plastic part of the grill, slight damage to the rear hatch, and a broken mirror piece on the passenger side. The two trim parts can be replaced a they are still available from Mercedes; the rear hatch and slight quarter-panel issues will need paintwork, but both are worth fixing as overall this looks like an example worth saving.

Besides these issues, the Black paintwork looks to be in nice condition, with no other serious flaws which would be able to be fixed with a professional detail.

The interior of this Mercedes looks to be in quite good shape, with the grey leather seats in excellent condition, along with the carpets, dash, and wood trim. It is not faultless but, with an interior detail, it would really shine.

Under the hood is the Mercedes 3.0L SOHC inline-six engine with 180 horsepower and 188 lb-ft of torque . Recent updates include new engine mounts, fuel pump, belts, and hoses. In addition, this car has also received a new exhaust. The car does have a current check engine light but, if you buy it right, this car would deliver years of fun.

The auction for this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300TE Wagon ends on Monday July 14 at 11 a.m. (PDT).
