By the 1960s' commencement, Mercedes-Benz's ever-expanding model range was lacking in only one department: a super prestige saloon to rival the Grosser Mercedes of the past. This gap was filled in September 1963 with the appearance at the Frankfurt International Motor Show of the all-new 600, which represented state-of-the-art automotive engineering in just about every department and was supremely well equipped.
This rare example of Mercedes-Benz's luxury flagship was delivered new in Dortmund, Germany where it has spent its entire life. The car was first registered on 1st July 1967 and has been in the same family's possession since 26th March 1999 when it was bought our vendor's father. One of the jewels of the family's collection, the car is offered with its Datenkarte, German Fahrzeugbrief and an extensive history file.
Whether driven by the fortunate next owner or his/ her chauffeur, this high-performance limousine affords the prospect of an intoxicating motoring experience rivalling that offered by many of today's most expensive luxury cars.
All lots are sold 'as is/ where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding. Visit the Bonhams|Cars website for all pertinent auction information.
