The Mercedes-Benz 250 SE Coupé (W111) from 1967 is a genuine piece of automotive history – elegant, technically sophisticated and one of the last classic coupés that Mercedes-Benz still produced largely by hand. With only 6,213 units produced, this is a sought-after collector’s vehicle. The shape is considered timelessly elegant – without fins, with clear lines and large glass surfaces.
Powerful technology and superior driving characteristics in the W111
Under the long hood is an in-line six-cylinder engine with an output of 150 hp. The handling is characterized by a successful combination of comfort and stability – typical of Mercedes vehicles of this era. Independent suspension all round, disc brakes on all wheels and precise power steering ensure a superior, safe driving experience. The 250 SE/C reached a top speed of around 182 km/h and glided over the road with impressive smoothness. Despite its age, it still conveys a feeling of solidity and technical excellence today.
Mercedes-Benz 250 SE Coupé: Repairs and services carried out
The coupé, which originally came from California, was imported to Germany in 2012 and was registered here for the first time on March 11, 2015 following repairs and restoration work. Between 2012 and 2014, the body of this Mercedes-Benz 250 SE Coupé was extensively overhauled in a specialized workshop. As part of the work, the underbody was ice-blasted to gently remove rust and old coatings. This careful restoration not only ensures a flawless appearance, but also long-term protection of the substance. In addition, the engine was completely overhauled in 2013, meaning that the vehicle is now in excellent technical condition. The combination of expert bodywork and revised drivetrain makes this coupé a reliable, authentic classic that is ready to endure many more years in style.
