A 1953 Mercedes-Benz 300 S Roadster (W188), one of only 141 examples of the open-top variant built, finished in ivory with tan leather and a dark brown hood. Among the most exclusive postwar Mercedes-Benz models, the 300 S Roadster combined shortened W186 underpinnings with a 150 hp triple-carburettor inline-six and hand-built coachwork, carrying a price at launch that exceeded even the later 300 SL. The car is accompanied by luggage and an owner's manual and is currently located in Tilburg, Netherlands.
