Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1961 Mercedes-Benz 220 SEB Coupé is a rare and desirable model, originally sold in the UK and featuring a rare manual transmission, sunroof, and power steering. Restored around 2000, it has been well-maintained by a Mercedes-Benz specialist and comes with its original logbook and service manuals.
Condition
7
While described as in generally excellent condition by the vendor, the car's restoration was done around 2000, and documentation is no longer available. It has been stored in a dry garage and maintained by a specialist, and MoT certificates show fewer than 10,000 miles since 2000. The listing highlights some cosmetic imperfections and the need for some reconditioning.
