Mercedes-Benz - 280 S - 1973

Here we offer you this fabulous Mercedes Benz 280S body W108. The flagship of the German brand in its time. This vehicle was owned by the ambassador of the United States of America in Madrid. It was bought new in the United States and shipped to Spain and upon its arrival was registered in Spain on the 8/9/1973. Its particular use has always been that of the diplomat and then it has had two subsequent owners. The vehicle has always been stored in an individual closed garage and covered with a body cover. It has not been used for more than two years and a large complete rebuild of the car has been done in 2016. It recently has been mechanically serviced. Everything is in proper working condition. Mechanically, two old cooling tubes, the engine oil as well as a couple of belts have been changed and it has four new spark plugs. The fuel tank was cleaned up in 2016. The distributor cap is also freshly fitted with genuine Mercedes Benz parts only. This large saloon has air conditioning, which needs to be checked for operation. All lights, windshield wipers and horn work properly. The Spanish documents are up to date with municipal taxes etc . . . The engine and the gearbox run smoothly, it just needs a little cleaning. The tyres have a profile with more than 80% on all four tyres equally. Neither the dashboard nor the headliner have any cracks. The wood is in very good condition throughout the dashboard as well as in the window frames. The chrome is freshly polished and in perfect condition as well as its bodywork and paint without damage or rust on the bodywork or the underside. Its leather upholstery is in a good hydration condition. The vehicle has a perfect colour combination for the most demanding, it is the latest model manufactured by hand by the brand. It is 100% original. A whim of a vehicle to make its buyer happy. The previous owner was an employee by an official Mercedes Benz dealer. You can view this car in Aviles, Asturias. The vehicle can be shipped by transport throughout Europe with an additional charge paid by the buyer.
