Recognised as the ultimate post-war Mercedes cabriolet, this model was a favourite among Hollywood’s elite, known for its elegance, exclusivity, and cutting-edge engineering.

With its rarity, impeccable provenance, and recent expert restoration, this 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SC Cabriolet A represents a rare opportunity to own one of the most exclusive and desirable Mercedes-Benz models in existence.
