Summary

Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1989 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1989: VIN WDB1240231A989945, model year 1989, mileage 162k km, petrol engine, manual gearbox and an asking price of $14,000. Such a check helps to quickly understand how well a specific car matches the market, whether the price looks suspiciously low and whether the mileage is typical for this year.

Insight: The car is over 15 years old — budget for maintenance and inspect the body and anti-corrosion treatment carefully.

Market position

Based on current data, 1500 similar offers were found for the Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1989 (the whole model, all years). Market prices range from $620 to $110,000 with a median of $2,200, and this offer is about 387% above the market estimate (this car's estimate ≈ $2,876). This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history and possible bargaining.

Insight: The price is well above the market — make sure it is justified by trim and condition. Many analogues on the market — easy to compare prices and bargain. Sale speed is assessed separately. Wide price spread — the final value depends heavily on trim, condition and mileage.
