1994 Mercedes-Benz E500 Limited W124 for Sale — 80,581 km, Restored Example

A restored 1994 Mercedes-Benz E500 Limited W124, showing 80,581 km and finished in Silver Metallic with a distinctive black-and-green leather interior.

The E500 Limited represents the final and most exclusive interpretation of Mercedes-Benz’s legendary V8-powered W124 performance sedan. Developed from the already exceptional E500, the Limited combined its discreet widened body, naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 and Porsche-associated production process with a more distinctive specification created specifically for the final-series cars.

This example has undergone restoration and presents with an extensively renewed interior, natural wood trim and period performance styling.

Restored Silver Metallic Exterior

The body has been restored and refinished in a silver metallic colour described by the seller as “Silver Diamond.”

For historical context, Mercedes-Benz states that the E500 Limited was originally offered in two exterior colours: Sapphire Black and Brilliant Silver. Because this car has been restored, its exact current paint specification should be checked against the original data card before describing the finish as factory-original.

The E500’s restrained appearance remains one of its defining characteristics. Wider front and rear wings, a broader track and subtly reshaped bodywork differentiate it from an ordinary W124 without turning it into an overtly styled performance car.

Black and Green Limited-Style Interior

Inside, the car is finished in an unusual black-and-green leather combination complemented by natural wood trim.

Colour-contrasting leather was an important part of the original E500 Limited specification. Mercedes-Benz offered Limited interiors in several combinations incorporating grey, red or green, making the cabin one of the clearest visual distinctions between a Limited and a regular E500.

The restored interior maintains the period luxury character of the W124 while giving this example a much more distinctive atmosphere than a conventional black-leather E500.

The 5.0-Liter M119 V8

Under the bonnet is the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter M119 V8, producing approximately 320 hp and driving the rear wheels through an automatic transmission.

What made the E500 remarkable was not simply its engine output, but the way the larger V8 was integrated into the W124 platform.

Mercedes-Benz worked with Porsche on the high-performance model, creating a wider and substantially re-engineered version of the standard sedan while preserving the comfort and understated appearance of an executive Mercedes-Benz. Mercedes-Benz confirms that production of the 500 E and later E500 was carried out in cooperation with Porsche through 1995.

A Discreet 1990s Performance Sedan

The E500 belongs to an era when high-performance German sedans did not necessarily announce themselves with oversized aerodynamic packages or highly aggressive styling.

Its muscular wheel arches and wider stance provide the clues, but much of the car’s appeal comes from how closely it still resembles a conventional W124.

That combination of understated styling, substantial V8 performance and traditional Mercedes-Benz construction has made the E500 one of the most recognizable performance sedans of the 1990s.

The Limited specification adds another layer of rarity and character to an already special platform.

A Distinctive Restored E500 Limited

This car is best viewed as a restored interpretation of the E500 Limited rather than an untouched preservation example.

Its Silver Metallic exterior, black-and-green cabin, upgraded 18-inch wheels and renewed presentation give it a stronger visual presence while retaining the fundamentals that make the model important: the W124 chassis, naturally aspirated M119 V8 and rare Limited specification.

For someone searching for a 1994 Mercedes-Benz E500 Limited W124 for sale, this example offers a combination of classic Mercedes engineering and a comprehensively refreshed presentation.
