ERRATUM : No registration title
Presence of a Swiss Customs clearance certificate

Luxembourg registration title
Sold without contrôle technique

The culmination of the 300 range before the transition to the mythical 300 S certainly came in the form of the 300d, a flagship over 5 m long and weighing almost 2 tonnes; the styling was greatly revised, with the adoption of a unique roof that transformed it into a phaeton without pillars, but the most important aspect was certainly the powertrain, with the integration of the M189 engine.


Our example joined the collection of its current owner in November 1996 when it left Switzerland: in 2001, a complete restoration was carried out, documented by a number of photos in the file.
The overall condition of the car meets the expectations of the most prestigious competitions, as the quality of the work is
so high; the paintwork is very beautiful, and the quality of the interior is absolutely stunning.
