Mercedes-Benz perfected the German luxury car recipe with the S-Class, a model that’s been around since 1954, and gained the ‘S’ moniker in 1972, with the W116 being the first to carry this hallowed letter. The preceding three generations weren’t explicitly badged ‘S’, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t have the pedigree, in fact, they laid the groundwork for a formula that has served Mercedes-Benz superbly to this date. What we’ve got here is a 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE from New York with a healthy 107,000 miles behind it, which is reportedly an all-original car except for the tires, brakes, and windshield. Two keys are included in the sale, as are books and manuals.
Wearing lines penned by Paul Bracq and Friedrich Geiger, the W108/109 model designation, to which this 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE belongs, ran from 1965 to 1972. This example wears a lovely dark green exterior and rolls on beautiful period Mercedes-Benz rims with the center caps proudly displaying the ‘Star’. All chrome work and badges are present and correct, and the twin exhaust pipes at the rear add a hint of sportiness to this comfort cruiser. All in, this car carries an air of majesty that will turn heads wherever you go. A new windshield was installed in 2021. The interior features a brown color scheme that is a great complement to the green exterior, and it looks in great condition too. This example has power windows, air conditioning, and the original Becker radio which reportedly still works! The driver grips the signature Mercedes-Benz thin-rimmed steering wheel with a chrome horn ring, although it’s said that the horn needs to be reconnected. You’ve also got a heater, rear armrest, and the original toolkit is included in the boot, with the spare wheel.
The W108/W109 series came with several in-line six and V8 engines on offer, which were carbureted, or fuel injected and sent to drive the rear wheels via manual or automatic transmissions. This 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE is powered by a 2.8L M130 in-line six-cylinder engine featuring mechanical Bosch fuel injection, that sends 158hp and 177lb-ft to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic gearbox. These cars were quite sprightly for their time and weight, reaching sixty from rest in under 11 seconds and going on to nearly 120mph when new. Suspension is via coil springs and shock absorbers all around. Braking is via discs on all wheels.

How does one define a classic car? Does a car's age make it a classic? Maybe it's the rarity factor? There are many ways to classify a classic car, but only a very few are recognized by all as a bonafide icon. The car we have today takes away that burning question and is a classic in every right. Present today is this lovely 1972 Mercedes-Benz 280SE. This luxury cruiser and German classic has a reported 11,000 miles on the clock and is the perfect way to spruce up your collection or savor a weekend drive in all its glory.
The Mercedes-Benz W108 series of 1965 to 1972 is part of the hallowed S-Class lineage.

This example, a 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE, is a four-door sedan with a mere 20,500 miles on the clock and has received some refreshment work to keep it in superb condition. If you'd like to see what Mercedes-Benz motoring of the Sixties and Seventies was like, this is a worthy classic car to purchase as a first-time classic or another addition to a discerning collection.

Cruising in luxury and style exposes you to a host of choices, but narrow it down, and it's certain that a chilled-out drive experience is best enjoyed behind the wheel of a roadster.

The legendary Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG is reportedly the first ever AMG-Mercedes to be designed from the ground up. Featuring revised front suspension that was shared with the CLK 63 AMG Black Series, the C63 AMG was known to have the quickest, most responsive steering of any Mercedes automobile at the time. Boasting a monstrous naturally aspirated 6.3-liter Mercedes-Benz M156 engine, this German beast came out of the factory reportedly producing 451 horsepower with performance packages taking it up to 507. However, this blacked out 2013 model we have here is capable of much more. Equipped with a Gintani Supercharger and Gintani Stage 2 tune, this power figure is expected to be quite a bit of a punch over the factory rated power. This C63 AMG is a force to be reckoned with on the roads. This 2013 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG has received consistent maintenance along with a recent service having clocked a total of 52,000 miles on the odometer and is now looking for its new owner in Los Angeles, California.
