300 SE Coupé W112 1963 for sale

MERCEDES 300 SE COUPE W112 1963 MERCEDES 300 SE Coupé W112 1963 Metallic gray/brown leather interior Pneumatic suspension Power steering Automatic transmission Sunroof Central armrest Whitewall tires Just over 2500 examples of this model were built in coupe version. With a design signed among others by Paul Bracq, the 300SE was the flagship of Mercedes at the time. It is indeed the predecessor of the current S-Class. A design all in length and elegance with notably the absence of pillars on the doors, making the cabin almost panoramic. Leather everywhere, chrome, a bakelite steering wheel... what luxury! and especially non-negligible options for the time: the sunroof, the automatic transmission with steering wheel controls, front and rear armrests, and the pneumatic suspension to name just a few. On the engine side, its 6-cylinder M189 develops 160hp of pure pleasure for cruising on our roads without fear of sluggish acceleration. The maximum power is rated at 175 km/h. The injection technology for the time is appreciated. On the road comfort side, the pneumatic suspension is very pleasant especially at the rear. A palace on wheels! A concept that Mercedes will never let go on the S-Class. This particular car has undergone a complete restoration. The body has been stripped and completely redone in body off. The running gear has been removed, stripped, and repainted. The interior and upholstery have also been done with a choice of high-quality leather as original. The woodwork is like new and all the instrumentation is functional. The mechanics have also been completely reviewed about 10 years ago. The pneumatic suspension was changed at that time. An expertise has confirmed the very good condition of the floor, underbody, and sills. It has been treated with a light anti-stone chip protection. Currently in the hands of a collector and lover of authentic cars, it is regularly maintained in a specialized workshop. Besides the usual revisions and oil changes, components such as the mechanical suspension or the Bosh injection are closely monitored and some things have been reviewed post-restoration to stick as closely as possible to the original configuration. It is now ready to hit the road with a recent maintenance history. The handling is quite easy thanks to the automatic transmission and power steering. The sunroof adds real value to the cabin. And most importantly, it accommodates two real seats in the back. A versatile, powerful, and luxurious car that surely will not go unnoticed.
