Description

The 1966 Mercedes-Benz 300 SE Coupe is a masterclass in restrained luxury. Hand-built and impeccably proportioned, it pairs pillarless elegance with bank-vault solidity. A fuel-injected 3.0 litre inline-six delivers smooth, confident power, while air suspension glides over imperfections. Inside, wood, leather, and chrome create a serene cocoon. It represents an era when Mercedes prized durability, dignity, and engineering integrity above trends or excess. Today, the 300 SE coupe remains a quiet icon, admired for grace, craftsmanship, and timeless authority on roads worldwide still.

Originally manufactured in 1966, this handsome Mercedes-Benz was imported into the UK in 1991 and has more recently benefitted from a comprehensive restoration and presents extremely well in dark maroon coachwork with a contrasting cream leather interior. Work undertaken included a bare metal respray and full retrimming of the interior. This stylish coupe is fitted with an air suspension system that can be adjusted remotely, and we are informed gives a 'magic carpet' level of comfort. We are also informed that this Mercedes has always been garaged and is offered to auction with a file of bills and receipts. There is no doubt that the 300 SE Coupe is a beautifully designed, and engineered luxury car and this example would be an ideal addition to any collection. Consigned by Dominic Lake
