Don't miss this opportunity and become the new owner of this unique Mercedes Coupe! This is a NO RESERVE auction.
The Mercedes 280 SE Coupé (W111) first appeared on the road along with the Convertible in 1967 and remained in production until 1971. Under the majestic bonnet was a six-cylinder in line engine with fuel injection that delivered 160 hp. The well-known car magazine Road & Track described the car as "one of the best-looking body designs to come from any German concern." “With its beautiful design and exceptional proportion, this series became an instant classic”. Not one word hereof was a lie!
In terms of passive safety, the W111 was a true pioneer, for example, the sharp protruding parts in the interior were upholstered so that in case of an accident an injury would be avoided, the handles to open the door didn’t protrude anymore and it was the first car with a safety steering wheel to prevent the “spear” effect. Additionally, for the first time, a roll cage (safety cage) with integrated crumple zone was implemented, to a design by Béla Barényi. The last, and also the top model, was introduced to the market in August 1969, the 280SE 3.5 with a brand new 3,499 cc V8 engine with 200 hp and a top speed of 210 km/h and an acceleration of 0 to 100 in 9.5 seconds. In order to be able to mount the large V8 block, the grille was widened.
The coupé version was sold the most, a total of 3,797 units were built. Only 1,390 customers favoured the Convertible over the Coupé, leading to astronomical prices for the open version today.
This original European-supplied Mercedes is in an original condition (engine and transmission are both original). The car starts immediately, shifts through all gears and brakes properly. The interior is original and is still in a neat condition, the blue leather interior looks great with the dark blue paint. What makes this Mercedes further special is the panoramic roof. Additionally, the car is offered with a new Dutch periodic vehicle inspection, thereby registration in another EU country will be easy. The engine compartment looks fresh and well-maintained.
These Mercedes 280SE 3.5L V8 Coupes are very rarely offered, so don't wait too long and become the new owner of this timeless Mercedes Coupe!
