Description
In August 1969 a final model was added, the 280 SE 3. 5, the first post-war Mercedes coupe with more than 3 liters. The car was equipped with the brand new M116 3499 cc V8. It produced 200 PS (150 kW) at 5800 rpm and a top speed of 210 km/ h (130 mph) (205 km/ h (127 mph) with automatic transmission) and a 0-100 km/ h (62 mph) at 9 . 5 seconds (11. 5 for the automatic transmission). As one of several changes to modernize the outdated design, a lower, wider grille was fitted and the facelifted model is often referred to by the Germans as the "flachkühler". The new grille was not a side effect of the engine enlargement. compartment to house the V8, despite popular belief. The front and rear bumpers were also modified by adding rubber bumper strips; the rear lenses changed to a flatter, cleaner design. This change was made to the standard 280 SE. As the top model in its range, the 280 SE 3. 5 is seen as an ideological successor to the W112 300 SE.
The car presented here is a perfect convertible that was delivered in Germany and has only had 2 owners, which is very special! The car is also equipped with an automatic gearbox, electric windows all around, a Becker radio, air conditioning and an electric antenna. Furthermore, the car looks like new under the hood and this is because it has always been worked on very professionally. It goes without saying that this beautiful 8 cylinder runs completely smoothly and everything works as it should.
It is a very chic convertible for someone who is looking for the best.
