Please note that experience shows us that the photobucket of over 100 large pixel pictures posted here are in most cases best viewed and downloaded using the very latest and most updated version of the 'Firefox' browser as some other browsers and especially older browser versions are not capable of accommodating the size of the download. Over the years our clients have overwhelmingly been appreciative of our many unaltered large pixel photos posted in our ads and our feedback has been that it is very rare that a seller will post all but the most flattering of photographs. We prefer to expose the complete roll of film taken of the car. in sometimes unflattering but natural sunlight. in order for our prospective buyers to be able to see true and reliable images of the car advertised and that is the reason for some seemingly duplicated shots. We trust you will agree.

West Coast Classics are proud to present an exceptional example of this 1972 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE (W 108. 067 Series) 4. 5 L V 8 Sedan (built between the dates

4/71-11/72 with this particular car being one of the last models built in 5/1972) and obviously always coveted with no signs of any accidents and owned for many years by its long time and original southern California owner who also happened to be the past 'National President of the Mercedes-Benz Club of America' with numerous awards and trophys won by the car over her years of ownership still available and sold with the car along with a thick file of service records. The car was a Christmas gift to her in 1972 and she joined the club in 1974 and worked her way up to President. She produced several road rallies and showed the car at various events and even travelled to Germany to visit the factory and her daughter inherited and sold the car in 2013.

The car is mostly still in all original and stock condition with an older repaint in its original 'White' (Weiss - Code 050) color paint and a gorgeous original interior with the highly desirable 4. 5 L/230 HP V 8 cylinder engine and this is a car loaded with factory options including

power steering. power brakes. power windows. air conditioning.

matching factory color Mercedes hub cap wheels centers. original

'Becker Europa' AM/FM radio. stunning and all original 'Dark Brown 'MB-Tex' (which is a high quality Mercedes produced vinyl seating. which is technically a leatherette and very close to leather. but notorious for being much easier to maintain and extremely durable)

interior with matching carpet and kick panel carpet and with a rare and desirable factory sunroof!

The car spent most of its life garaged in South Pasadena. southern California and has exceptional condition chrome. including both front and rear bumpers and all the typical rust-prone areas are rust-free and there are no signs of any accidents or damage whatsoever!

This car must be seen to be seen and driven to be fully appreciated - the engine is extremely strong and responsive with excellent oil pressure and no oil leaks and which sounds absolutely

magnificent and the recently rebuilt transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and

the engine temperature always remains cool.

ready daily appreciating. daily driving and daily head-turning
