MERCEDES-BENZ 280
Convertible 280 SE (1971)
This Mercedes-Benz 1971 W111 280SE Cabriolet Convertible harmonizes timeless elegance with a sports-car powertrain, this immaculate Cabriolet is one of only 1,232 built over the period of 1969 to 1971. Finished in gleaming black with green leather interior, this W111 has an imposing presence, offering an unparalleled stately drive for a lone maverick, and exquisite refinement for guests. This rare gem has undergone an unimaginable “body-off” restoration which comprised extensive panel and chassis works, complete with modern rust-proofing protection throughout. The 3.5L engine, ancillaries, gearbox, braking and suspension systems have all been extensively overhauled as have the cooling, A/C and exhaust systems. The extent of the restoration cannot be adequately expressed here, however it will be an absolute pleasure to share details of the full rejuvenation of this classic upon enquiry.
