Description of 1973 Mercedes-Benz 200-Series W108 in RARE DB 542 Dark Red

1973 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 4,5 Sedan (W108)
VIN # 108.067-12-020035 (built in 09/1972)
Motor # 117.984-12-020271
Transmission # 23105
Absolutely original and matching-numbers car!
1 owner since new!
All original books/manuals/DATA-Card, original build sheet (Monroney label) and all service/maintenance records from the day #1 included!
147525 miles.
Original BECKER Europa AM/FM radio (works fine).
Kuhlmeister A/C (works, might need a charge).
Power windows (that operate properly).
Power central locking (that works!!!).
Power steering.
4 disc brakes.
Excellent running/driving car. Strong and powerful engine. No smoke. Smooth and tight transmission. No unusual noises.
Regularly maintained/serviced (all records from the day #1 included, see picture).
Running/sounding the way a well maintained car should.
Exterior in original and elegant DB 542 Dark Red (dunkelrot). Older low-quality repaint that shines, looks nice from a small distance away, but nothing that will win any show. It could be driven the way it is, however, a good quality paint job is what this car definitely deserves.
Original black MB-Tex (vinyl) interior seats (that should be re-stuffed, see pictures).
Headliner is like new.
Dash has no cracks.
Dash wood looks magnificent (see pictures).
All lights, gauges, turn signals, horn and clock work the way they should.
Brakes are good, emergency brake too.
Tires are good 195/75/14", including a new spare tire.
The exhaust is in good condition (no need of repairs).
The undercarriage is NOT RUST-FREE (trunk wheel wells's bottoms will need to be replaced, all 4 jack points will need some attention/welding).
Never in any type of accident.
This is a stunning and noble looking vehicle that is mechanically superb and that can be driven to anywhere (guaranteed!)... Or immediately enjoyed while attending the flaws in order to make it absolutely perfect and preserve it for the next 50 years to come.
Not for married guys (as they would not remain married for long, considering the attention that this vehicle draws anywhere you go...)!
This vehicle is only 43 years old.
It is absolutely gorgeous and it should be enjoyed right away.
Due to the age sold as-is.
$500 deposit due immediately, balance within the next 3 days via bank wire transfer, cashiers check or cash.
This is a WORLDWIDE sale. I can help organize the shipping to anywhere in the world.
