Description
- Registered in Italy in 1961, with original logbook, keys, and maintenance manual at the time. About 78,000 km covered to date.
- Well-preserved, the interior and upholstery underwent a conservative restoration with total repainting in its original pastel black colour.
- The W 180 series from Mercedes Benz was the epitome of the Mercedes myth: soundness and opulence disguised in a classic, sober design. The 220 S was aimed at those seeking more substantial driving pleasure.
- The engine delivered around 100 hp, which took the car to over 160 km/h. A mechanical overhaul was carried out.
- In stunning condition, particularly rich in history: a unique opportunity to have the first model to bear the legendary ‘S’ badge in your collection.
