Mercedes 280SE Stacked headlight 1970 There is no getting away from the fact that these Stack headlight Mercs are a lovely looking car with a presence about them. This nice 1970 280SE is no exception. Rare to find a Right Hand Drive car in this condition the current owner has just had the normal corrosion problems underneath the car professionally repaired prior to presenting it for its mot this removes one of the headaches these early Mercedes can suffer from. Internally the interior is very nice and when you sit in there you realise how big Mercedes managed to make it feel. Large very comfortable seats trimmed in blue vinyl with both front and rear in excellent order. Carpets roof lining door cards and the dash with its large dials are in very good condition. The vendor is happy to point out that the paintwork will need some attention if you are looking to make the car a show piece but its silver exterior is more than good enough if you are looking for a nice solid car you can actually drive. With the prices some examples of this model have sold for recently he feels he has allowed for this with his reserve. Exterior chrome work is present and in good all round condition. Mechanically the car is very strong. With the engine gearbox and genearal mechanics all being described as good. It comes with almost every MOT issued and a lot of receipts showing how well this car has been looked after when in use. The current MOT is through to December and there has been very little use since it passed late last year.In fact its MOT history shows that less than 600 miles have been recorded since 2008. So here is a rare opportunity to buy a very sought after Mercedes that is turnkey with loads of paperworkMOTd and best of all affordable.
