Very occasionally it is possible to find popular classic motorcars that have been truly cherished throughout their lives and this very fine Mercedes is one such example. In this case it is its simplicity of ownership that accounts for the fact that the car has remained in highly original and well preserved order as it remained in the same family ownership for virtually its whole life.

Unusually. as new this individual and special example was delivered by Keenan Motors in Philadelphia in the form it shows today. with the highly desirable optional alloy wheels. Its data tag confirms that it was supplied in Signal Red and with a Black hardtop. Mercedes paint finishes are renowned for the quality and longevity if well maintained and close inspection of the car today confirms that in this respect the car is substantially original.

Servicing through its life has been with main Mercedes-Benz dealerships. firstly in Pennsylvania and later. when it passed to another Connecticut based family member in that region. more important works were entrusted to Paul Russell's esteemed facility in Massachusetts. Throughout its 46 year existence its servicing is well charted. so its accrual of just under 75. 00 miles is fully substantiated. Additional images are available. A fully restored car will never ever feel the same way this example feels on the road. Simply gorgeous to drive.  


*Single family ownership for 38 years
