* Desirable Colors - Sunroof Coupe – Manual 4-Speed *
The Mercedes Benz 220 SE raised the bar for middle-class luxury when it was introduced in 1959, noted for their fine finish and attention to detail. Considered to be an immediate success, the 220SE pillarless coupe was first introduced in 1961 and would come to be the last of the hand-built Mercedes models. Road & Track magazine said "one of the best-looking body designs to come from any German concern." Exquisitely proportioned and beautifully designed. With only 13 cars produced per week, they were instantly considered classics the day they rolled off the production line, and have remained so ever since.
The W11 coupe remains a very honest and has an original factory Sunroof Coupe.
The restoration is documented and this Mercedes has placed in several concour events over the past few years. Simply a stunning example complete with a sliding sunroof that brightens the open air feel.
The W111's clean undercarriage reflects the same originality as the luggage compartment fitted with spare, tools, rubber mat and jack. The engine bay is simply stunning with all correct mechanical configurations.
