The Mercedes-Benz 220 models, internally designated W128, entered production in 1954. There were a number of six-cylinder variants available through the years, including the 220 (1954 to 1956), the 219 (1956 to 1959), 220S (1956 to 1959) and the 220SE (1959 to 1960). Only the 220S and the 220SE engines were available in the top-line cabriolets.
The 220SE, (representing Super, Fuel Injected) were luxuriously appointed and well-trimmed. They were fitted with many amenities associated with Mercedes-Benz's limited-production 300 series. Many parts of the car, including the dash and door finish, were hand-built and covered in wood veneers of burled grain. The seats and trim were clothed in Roser surfaced-dyed leather, complemented by Wilton wool carpets.
The 220SE Cabriolet was introduced in 1959 and produced through October of 1960. The engine displaced 2,195cc and offered 135 horsepower. Mercedes-Benz produced just 1,112 examples of the 220SE Cabriolet. They had a four-speed synchronized transmission, independent suspension and long wheelbase.
This 220SE Cabriolet has been used sparingly and remains in show-quality condition. There is a stainless-steel exhaust system, a Becker Mexico radio, a convertible top, and period-style wide whitewall tires.
In 2010, the car was offered for sale at the Sports & Classics of Monterey presented by RM Auctions. It was estimated to sell for $150,000 - $200,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $143,000 inclusive of buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Dec 2010
