Our customer offers for sale this 1973 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 4.5, a classic sedan with a 4.5L V8 engine and automatic transmission. Repainted in a green metallic finish, the car shows wear consistent with its age. It was part of a wedding car fleet and has been largely stationary since the 1990s. The interior features durable faux-leather seats and a combination of leather and wood on the dashboard. Minor signs of use are present, but the cabin remains functional.
Mechanically, the car starts without issue, the gearbox shifts smoothly, and there are no noted unusual engine noises or smoke. However, there is light oil leakage under the vehicle. It has not been inspected recently.
The Mercedes-Benz 280SE 4.5 belongs to the W108 series, a luxury sedan produced between 1965 and 1972. Known for its exceptional engineering, it was one of the most refined vehicles of its time. The 4.5L V8 engine, introduced for the North American market, offered impressive performance with smooth power delivery. The W108 combined timeless design with innovative safety features like crumple zones and advanced braking systems, setting new standards for luxury sedans.
