Summary

Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1988 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1988: VIN WDB1241201A763568, model year 1988, mileage 300k km, дизель engine, manual gearbox and an asking price of $2,800. 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 — running costs are higher; the key inspection points are the body and anti-corrosion treatment. High mileage — service history and the condition of the engine and gearbox are decisive. Diesel — the condition of the fuel system and the DPF matters.

Market position

Based on current data, 1500 similar offers were found for the Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1988 (the whole model, all years). Market prices range from $620 to $110,000 with a median of $2,175, and this offer is within ±7% of the individual estimate (≈ $2,726). 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 in line with the market — a balanced offer. Many analogues on the market — prices are easy to compare. Sale speed is assessed separately. Wide price spread — the final value depends heavily on trim, condition and mileage.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 3, transfers — 2, plate changes — 0, years in the registry — 6. The latest recorded operation: Inherited by a new owner on 2025-11-05. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: A moderate number of owners (3) — typical for the car’s age. There were transfers but the plate stayed the same — the history was not broken up by plate changes.
