“As with any old Merc, the 2-door coupé is the one you want — elegant, timeless, and increasingly hard to find. This 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SE Coupé is a factory right-hand drive example, making it even more desirable and well-suited for local roads. This car runs very well and is fully road-usable, offering the opportunity to enjoy it as-is or take it on as a long-term restoration project. All paperwork is in order, making for a smooth ownership transfer.
The original engine has been replaced with a later model Mercedes 280 carburetor engine and automatic transmission, making this a slightly modified but still very drivable classic.
The bodywork and paint are in fair condition — not perfect, but presentable. The interior also presents fairly, with woodwork still in good shape, offering a solid foundation for anyone looking to bring this car back to its former glory.
This is truly a restorer’s dream — a rare and iconic body style that can be enjoyed immediately and improved over time.
A special car with undeniable charm and loads of potential.
Located in Shere, Pretoria East – Viewings by appointment only.
