1971 Mercedes 280SE 3.5 for sale

This is a nice 1971 Mercedes 280SE for sale. This is a two owner car and the current owner has had this Mercedes-Benz 280SE since 1978! The long time owner was saving the car for his son, but alas, his son is finally old enough to own a car but he is not interested in this classic. So it is with pleasure that I offer this 1971 Mercedes 280SE to you.

This is a European model. The car is a very nice and dry example with perfect floors and rust-free panels. It has been garage kept and it has only received light use during the summer months which has helped keep the original mileage very low.

Recent work on the car includes a new power steering pump, new engine and transmission mounts, new steering dampener, new front wheel bearings, new brake rotors and pads all the way around, new hood insulation (not shown in photos), new spark plugs, a recent valve adjustment, new valve cover gaskets and new points. The fuel injector trigger points were also cleaned and the car now has all new fuel lines.

It is hard to find nice examples of a Mercedes 280 SE for sale. With any fairly rare model it is always a blessing to find an original, rust-free example. Finding a car with such low original mileage is even more of a treat! This is a car you will enjoy exactly as is. Please take a moment to view the two photo galleries below. The close-up gallery was shot while the car was in winter storage, but the photos sure show the great condition of the original body panels. The full body gallery highlights how beautiful this car looks out in the sunshine! Feel free to call with any questions, or to reserve this classic 1971 Mercedes 280SE for sale!
