Mercedes-Benz - 220 B Cabriolet - 1953

Een bijzonder charmant exemplaar van de iconische Mercedes-Benz 220 B Cabriolet uit 1953. Dit model staat bekend om zijn tijdloze elegantie, verfijnde techniek en klassieke rijbeleving. Dit specifieke voertuig is een uiterst gave en complete basis voor zowel direct gebruik als een hoogwaardige restauratie.

ALGEMEEN:

Deze Mercedes-Benz 220 B Cabriolet betreft een origineel en eerlijk voertuig, afkomstig uit het zonnige Californië (VS), waar hij altijd droog heeft gestaan. Het betreft hier een zeldzame uitvoering met een authentiek karakter en prachtige ouderdomssporen. De auto verkeert in een bijzonder originele staat, wat het een waardevolle vondst maakt voor liefhebbers en verzamelaars.
Inclusief zijn originele Californische ‘black plates’, wat niet alleen bijdraagt aan zijn historische waarde, maar ook bevestigt dat het voertuig altijd binnen dezelfde staat is gebleven.

CARROSSERIE/LAKWERK:

De carrosserie is gaaf, hard en vertoont een mooie patina die past bij de leeftijd van de wagen. Geen aanwijzingen voor roest of ernstige beschadigingen; het plaatwerk oogt recht en solide. De lak is ouder, met karakteristieke gebruikssporen en lichte verwering, wat bijdraagt aan de charme van deze oldtimer. Voor wie de originele uitstraling waardeert, is deze lak absoluut passend. Uiteraard is dit ook een uitstekende basis voor een volledige restauratie naar concoursstaat.

TECHNISCH:

De motor loopt soepel en zonder onregelmatigheden. Start direct en draait rustig stationair. De auto is rijdbaar, maar een technische controle of revisie is aan te raden alvorens lange afstanden te rijden. Aandrijving, remmen en ophanging functioneren, maar verdienen aandacht in het kader van onderhoud of restauratie.

INTERIEUR:

Het interieur is uitgevoerd in zwart leder en verkeert in nette, verzorgde staat. De bekleding is intact, zonder scheuren of overmatige slijtage. Het originele stuurwiel, de instrumenten en het dashboard zijn aanwezig en correct voor dit model. Ook de details in chroom en hout zijn nog grotendeels origineel en intact. Een sfeervol en correct interieur dat het klassieke karakter van de auto onderstreept.

DOCUMENTEN:

Bij de auto worden diverse documenten en onderhoudsfacturen geleverd, inclusief originele Mercedes-Benz werkplaatshandboeken uit die tijd. Deze documentatie is van grote waarde voor het behoud en eventuele restauratie van het voertuig, en getuigt van zorgzaam eigenaarschap in het verleden.

AFHALING:

De auto bevindt zich momenteel in Nederland en is op afspraak te bezichtigen. Afhaling of levering in overleg. Transport binnen Europa kan worden verzorgd tegen meerprijs. Invoerrechten zijn reeds voldaan.

OVERIGE INFORMATIE:

Dit is een klassieker met potentie. Of u nu op zoek bent naar een unieke rijdersauto met patina, of een solide restauratieproject met een bijzonder origineel uitgangspunt — deze 220 B Cabriolet biedt beide mogelijkheden.

Zeldzaam, compleet en met een prachtige geschiedenis – een unieke kans voor de echte liefhebber van klassieke Mercedes-Benz modellen.

Dit is een exemplaar waar men twee kanten mee op kan: of zo laten en technisch geheel nakijken om vervolgens mee te gaan rijden of een uitzonderlijk goede en complete basis voor een hoogstaande restauratie.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
