1972 Mercedes-Benz 280SE For Sale by Owner in Schiller Park, IL

This is an excellent example of a well loved and cared for W108 Mercedes Sedan with the coveted 4.5 Liter, 225 Horsepower V8. This is the desirable shorter body with a production total of 13,527 between April of 1971 and November of 1972. Our seller has owned this "original" 280SE 4.5 for approximately nine years and has been loyal to servicing the car with one independent German mechanic that owned his own shop. Franz tells us that she always did the maintenance and any repair work that he suggested without hesitation. She states that she is not aware of any mechanical attention needed and welcomes an inspection by the buyers mechanic. Repainted in the Mercedes Deep Blue in 2015, it presents as a "casual show" and well respected collectible vintage Mercedes should. The interior is Black, in excellent "original" condition, and the upgrades include the Contemporary Sound System and the Vintage Nardi wood steering wheel.

With only 111K miles on the odometer, you know that our seller (and the previous 2 known owners) have enjoyed this collectible sedan most likely only during the better weather driving seasons.
