- Engine
- 2.2L inline-six (M127), 120 bhp DIN
- Colour
- Dark green ('Dunkelgrün')
A 1964 Mercedes-Benz 220 SEb Convertible (W111) delivered new to Singen, Germany, finished in dark green over brown leather with a matching hood. Notable for its rare four-speed manual gearbox, matching-numbers drivetrain, and an unrestored, largely original condition retained across two or three German owners and one Dutch owner. With just over 108,000 kilometres recorded, the car retains its original interior, steel wheels, and factory documentation including the data card and Fahrzeugbrief, making it an unusually well-preserved example of this hand-built, top-of-the-range Mercedes-Benz.
