1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SE W111 Coupe SOLD

One of only 3, 797 280 CE coupes built!!

Overview
My Mercedes Benz W111 Coupe was manufactured in 1968 and is a late production very rare 280SE straight six engines.
I dreamed of owning one for years, it is by far my favourite Mercedes coupe, the slope on the roof gets me every time.
Original delivery was in period cream (changed in 1998 to the current MB Astral Silver) complemented by its original Caramel Leather interior.
Imported from Switzerland in 2009 by the previous owner, my vehicle comes in a very solid condition & had the glass out re-paint in approx. 1998.
It is an original un-restored MB Coupe, no additions, no added spotlights, no switches, no retro-fitted door trim, no cluster light conversions, a straight original European Supplied W111.

Condition
It now shows a very solid undercarriage which is often not seen in these models in the UK unless restored.
It has covered 107, 500 miles and had just 3 owners from new with a very rare floor shift automatic gear box. Regular maintenance has kept my Mercedes-Benz 280SE in a lovely & smooth driving condition with work carried out by MB Car Shop of Fulham, London
It comes with a small history file, original handbook, jack & original rubber boot mat.

Buying
If you are simply looking for the cheapest W111 money can buy, then my car is not for you.
Consider you are buying a good car at a fair price, rather than a fair car at the cheapest price
