Timeless Elegance

In a world where automotive design changes at the speed of trends, some shapes never lose their charm. The Mercedes-Benz W124 Cabriolet is one such icon — a symbol of refined engineering, understated luxury, and timeless presence. And this 1996 E220 Cabriolet, finished in rare and radiant Ruby Metallic, is one of the finest examples currently available.

In its day, the E220 Cabriolet was the most expensive four-seat convertible in the Mercedes-Benz lineup — a handcrafted luxury tourer that combined open-air freedom with German solidity. Today, it stands as one of the most collectible post-1990s Benzes, beloved for its classic proportions, superb build quality, and lasting elegance.

This particular example has just 127,450 km on the odometer — a remarkably low figure for a 29-year-old vehicle — and is in excellent optical and mechanical condition. It has been consistently and professionally maintained, with full service history and documentation, including invoices.

Specification Highlights:

2.2L inline-4 engine, smooth and reliable
4-speed automatic transmission
Air conditioning
Heated front seats
Driver and passenger airbags
Original RDS radio with automatic antenna
Remote central locking
Beige/Crème leather interior — soft & supple
Wind deflector included for serene top-down cruising

The E220 Cabriolet offers something few modern convertibles can match: the feeling of calm, assured luxury in motion. With the roof down and the windscreen deflector in place, it glides over long stretches with composure and grace. The cabin is quiet and plush, with the kind of analog charm that’s quickly disappearing from today’s digital dashboards.

The W124 series has long outgrown its reputation as merely a solid executive car — it’s now a true modern classic. The cabriolet models, especially well-preserved examples like this one, are increasingly hard to find in original condition with genuine low mileage and complete history.

Whether you’re looking to expand your classic collection or simply want a refined weekend cruiser with enduring class, this 1996 Mercedes-Benz E220 Cabriolet is a car that will reward its next owner in both aesthetic pleasure and long-term value.
