Offered for sale is an absolutely gorgeous. 1964 Classic Mercedes 220 (W111) Sedan finished in a luxuriant. deep Burgundy. paired with its original color of tan MB Tex interior. totally redone (at great cost) and new (see pics) and showing only 69. 28 miles on the odometer. believed to be original and correct. Comes with original books and various receipts from over the years. The car’s interior is equally clean and entirely original - including the dash wood that runs across the bottom of the windshield. which has been recently oiled as required from time to time to renew its lustre. The seats show and feel like a new car should. the carpets are in fantastic original condition. A testament to our zealous refurbishing and maintenance. everything works – including. but not limited to the original Becker EUROPA radio. heat/defrost controls. all gauges and even the original Air Conditioning unit blows cold. The car is ALWAYS covered. There are NO cracks in the dash areas where you would usually expect the sun to be especially harsh. Not with this car. The car’s undercarriage is entirely original. nbsp;nearly entirely rust-free and solid. as are the wheel wells. jack points. trunk and trunk wells. The engine compartment is clean and well-sorted. housing the powerful straight 6 cylinder engine. In the interest of full disclosure. the only items of note would be some bumper chrome on the underside (non-visible) part of the bumper feels like it is peeling and I accidentally poked a fingertip sized hole in the top next to the sunroof while cranking it closed (see pictures). The power steering box makes noise when turning tight corners but this is normal in these old vehicles. Otherwise. I would confidently rate this vehicle an 8 out of 10. Starting easily when warm. idling consistently and pulling strongly and smoothly through each of the gears. the engine has excellent. even compression. The car’s road manners are also fantastic. driving and braking straight. handling cleanly. Whether tooling through town on a weekend cruise or bombing down the highway at 80+ MPH. the car is an absolute joy to drive – modern enough to be comfortably enjoyed as a daily driver (although we feel the car’s too nice for that fate). but also visceral enough to provide that great vintage ride quality. Whether its next owner will be a weekend enthusiast or a serious collector. this gorgeous sedan is undoubtedly going to provide another 50 years of “pride of ownership” for its next owner. Considering their rarity and the astronomical prices that their cabriolet siblings are fetching. these "Heckflosse" models have long been undervalued in most classic car enthusiasts’ minds. That’s not always going to be the case. so it is many investors opinions that they represent excellent investment upside. Finding clean and turn key classics such as this is hard enough as it is. but finding a cosmetically and mechanically excellent. very original and stalwart example such as this is truly a rare occurrence. Please bid accordingly. We want this car to go to great home and would be happy to further discuss it and answer any questions. so please feel free to email me We’ve always had an appreciation for classic cars and over the years have sold an eclectic mix of high value investment grade vehicles.

That time has come for this Mercedes (if the price is right. of course – this isn’t a fire sale). We try to give accurate descriptions of the cars we’re selling. but we’re enthusiasts. not experts. and we encourage and are happy to help facilitate personal or professional inspections.
