The Mercedes-Benz W108 series of 1965 to 1972 is part of the hallowed S-Class lineage. Intended as the Stuttgart automaker's pinnacle offerings of the time, these four-door sedans were widely acclaimed, and over 380,000 were made during their production run. 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.
This 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE wears a smooth black coat that befits its Paul Bracq-penned lines, which are considered some of the most distinctive of all time. There's no mistaking a period Mercedes-Benz for anything else, really. Looking further, the twin stacked headlamps and imposing front grille of the W108 are present, as are the diminutive taillamp clusters at the rear. We're told that the front end of this car has been rebuilt. Finally, the car rolls on a set of steel wheels replete with black half hubcaps adorned by the iconic Mercedes-Benz Star. The interior of this 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE is a five-seat affair with red leather seats and a wood-trimmed dashboard. The driver grips a thin-rimmed steering wheel that faces a comprehensive pack of VDO instruments, including an analog clock right at the cluster's center. Low down between the front seats lies a chrome-surrounded gear shifter, and higher up in the center console is a Becker Mexico push-button radio. We also spot what appears to be an air conditioning unit but are unsure of its functional status. Meanwhile, rear-seat passengers are treated to a first-class ride, courtesy of a plushly padded bench seat, armrests, and ashtrays. The trunk is a similarly capacious affair and hosts a full-size spare wheel and tire, too.
This 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE packs a 2.8L in-line 6-cylinder engine with Bosch mechanical fuel injection. Research shows that the engine is said to produce 158hp and 177lb-ft and drives the rear wheels via a 4-speed automatic gearbox. Moreover, the car has recirculating ball power steering, front and rear disc brakes, and independent suspension all around. The current owner reports new bolts, a new battery, new gaskets, and fresh fluids.
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.

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.
It is often said that life was better in the ʼ80s. Music, clothes, and of course, cars. This 1989 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time.

With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.

Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.
