Mercedes-Benz debuted four new models at the Frankfurt Show in 1959 - the 220 SE among them. Longer than their predecessors, these elegant newcomers featured a wider radiator shell, wrap-around windscreen, wider rear window and vertically positioned twin headlamps. The new 220 SE retained the fuel-injected, single-overhead-camshaft engine of the previous 220 SE. Coupé and Cabriolet models appeared in 1960 and 1961. More modern in style, the luxurious 220 SE Coupé and Cabriolet were better appointed, being equipped as standard with a rev counter, leather upholstery and four-speed automatic transmission with floor-mounted gearchange lever or even more rare 4-speed manual as seen here. By the time production ceased in October 1965, fewer than 17,000 220 SE Coupé and Cabriolet models had been manufactured, and today these stylish and luxuriously equipped Grand Tourers are highly prized.

This final year 220 SE was ordered in America as a European Delivery/Tourist in Dark green (268) over Crème Leather (209) with Power Steering and was delivered in April of 1965.

With limited/seasonal use, this spectacular 220 SE Cabriolet with rare 4-speed manual gearbox is sure to please, not only the enthusiast weekend driver, but also, the seasoned collector and concours entrant alike. Comes complete with Books, pouch, Tool kit, Jack, Spare wheel/tire and MB Data card.
