Description

The 1959 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Cabriolet, part of the prestigious W128 "Ponton" series, is an iconic luxury convertible produced between 1958 and 1960 in only 1,112 units. It embodies the elegance and technical innovation of its era.

With refined lines and chrome accents, it boasts a timeless design, enhanced by a beautifully fitted fabric soft top. The luxurious and meticulously crafted interior combines walnut wood trim with high-quality leather seats, creating a warm and sophisticated ambiance.

Under the hood, its 2.2-liter inline 6-cylinder engine, featuring Bosch mechanical fuel injection, delivers 115 horsepower, a remarkable technological achievement for its time. Paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox and independent suspension, it offers smooth performance and an exceptionally comfortable driving experience.

A true symbol of excellence and innovation, the 220 SE Cabriolet remains a timeless masterpiece of 1950s automotive design.

Our 1959 model was fully restored to its original configuration by its current owner in our certified Mercedes Classic workshop between 2015 and 2017. It is now in exceptional concours condition.
