Seller's Description
The W111 220S was a hugely successful model for Mercedes after World War II, combining the exclusivity and luxury of the earlier 300 series, with the simplicity, usability and affordability of the Pontons. Showcasing elegant 1960’s design, these classics set the bar for automotive engineering at the time and were a staple in the rich history of Mercedes-Benz. In excellent condition, this example was delivered new to Australia in 1963. Having travelled only 89,000 miles since new, this matching numbers “Finny” has been beautifully maintained, with the interior and paintwork in remarkable condition for its age. The leather interior is tear-free, and is beautifully accented with wooden trim and chrome finishes. With factory-straight panel gaps, this is an accident-free car that has been kept highly original. This 220S is a pleasure to drive, with a 2.2L Inline 6 mated to a 4-speed automatic gearbox. The power is instant and torquey, and the shifts are smooth and precise. This engine/gearbox combination results in a car that is easy to drive, and has no trouble keeping up in modern traffic. The luxury feel is one that transcends generations, and the usability of this classic is second to none. This 220S is an investment ready to be driven and enjoyed every day. Steadily increasing in desirability and rarity, this is an excellent opportunity to own an essential piece of Mercedes-Benz history.
