Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This Mercedes-Benz 280 CE coupe, owned by the vendor for 40 years, features a 2,746cc engine and red exterior with beige MB Tex interior. While garaged and driving well, it needs cosmetic improvements and has covered only 300 miles since its last MoT in 2018.
Condition
6
The car is described as driving well but would benefit from cosmetic attention. It has been restored in the past but the last MoT was in 2018 and it has covered only 300 miles since. This suggests that while the car may be mechanically sound, it requires some cosmetic work to bring it up to a higher standard.
