The incredible 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Low-Grille Coupe featured here is finished in the stunning, factory correct color combination of Silver-Grey over an impeccably kept Blue leather interior. This particular example was delivered new to its first owner in June 1972 by Star Motor Cars of Houston, Texas and remained in the hands of the original owner for nearly 20 years. Since that time the 280SE has been meticulously maintained and sparingly driven by collector-level ownership, even going as far as winning first place at a Mercedes-Benz Club of America concours event recently. An incredibly low 41,463 miles are present on the odometer; a number which is documented actual by the accompanying service records dating back to when the car was first delivered in 1972. In addition to the outstanding service history an incredible assortment of original books and documentation accompany this 1971 Mercedes-Benz today, including the owners manual, original VIN stamped warranty book, original service book, original took kit & jack, fuel fill records from the original owner, spare keys, original Becker radio books & warranty information, and more. The numbers-matching 3.5 liter SOHC V8 engine is still in place as verified by the accompanying decoded Mercedes-Benz Data Card copy. With such incredibly low mileage, outstanding documentation, originality and numbers matching provenance this 280SE 3.5 Coupe is one of the best examples of its kind to be found on the market today and will certainly bring many years of enjoyment to its future caretaker. We are proud to offer this outstanding example of a Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Low-Grille Coupe, from the final year of production, to the most astute collector, investor or enthusiast who appreciates documented low mileage and accompanying documentation.
