Description

1964 MERCEDES BENZ 220 SE Cabriolet Chassis 11102310055326 French registration 50 000 / 70 000€ The W111 series continues the Mercedes Benz tradition of the 4-seater cabriolet. Launched in 1962 with the 220 SE Cabriolet, the series continued its ascent until 1972 with the 280 SE Cabriolet 3.5. A true synonym for luxury and elegance, the W111 Cabriolet is a "Must Have" in any collection. Designed by Paul Bracq, who at the time was producing his first design for Mercedes Benz, the coupé and its cabriolet derivative are distinguished from the sedan by the absence of wings on the fenders, creating a distinctive elegance. The 220 SE Cabriolet was launched in September 1961 with a 6-cylinder, fuel-injected 2.2 engine developing 120 hp DIN. At the time, priced at 47,000 francs, it was on a par with an AC Cobra. Very elitist, only a handful of examples were ever produced. The model we offer is a 1964 220 SE Cabriolet, equipped with the desirable and rare 4-speed manual gearbox. Presented in a beautiful metallic gray hue, this cabriolet is in good overall condition. The current owner acquired it in 2008, through one of our auctions. Since then, the brakes, upholstery and soft top have all been redone. Never restored, but well maintained over the years, the test drive came out very conclusive. The Mercedes Benz 220 SE is the ideal convertible for the approaching summer season. 1964 MERCEDES BENZ 220 SE Convertible Chassis 11102310055326 French registration 50 000 / 70 000€ The Mercedes W111 series continues the tradition of the Mercedes Benz 4-seater cabriolet.
