Ponton 219
“It isn’t often that a car like this comes to market in such an honest, original state. This 1959 Mercedes-Benz Ponton 219 has been in the careful hands of the same owner for more than 20 years, and is now offered for sale out of a private Mercedes collection.
The odometer currently reads 69,700 miles, but as the cluster only records five digits and ticks over every 99,999 miles, the true mileage is 169,700 miles. The car carries a service history up to 57,000 miles, after which it was maintained carefully within the collection.
• Originality: Completely original inside and out
• Documentation: Full set of manuals and service books still with the car
• Mechanical condition: Starts and runs 100%, used regularly for both short and long trips
• Accessories: Original tools and spare wheel included
• Paperwork: All in order and up to date
The interior is excellent in original condition, and the paintwork presents beautifully with only minor work done over the years. This is a car that has aged gracefully, carrying with it the authenticity that restorations often remove.
The Ponton 219 has steadily gained recognition among collectors, with recent sales proving its upward trend. As a rarer variant in the Ponton family, this car offers both collectability and usability — a classic Mercedes that is as rewarding to drive as it is to own.
Opportunities to buy one in such untouched condition are few and far between. This is your chance to secure a beautifully original 219 and add it to your collection.
Located in Shere, Pretoria East – viewings by appointment only.
