*Mercedes-Benz 170 S – The Evolution of Mercedes in the Post-War Era*

*A Lovingly Restored Classic with a Rich History*
Some cars carry a story that goes beyond mere engineering and design. This Mercedes-Benz 170 S is one of them. Originally registered in the Netherlands in 1952, it has been lovingly restored and cherished by its previous owner for nearly 25 years. This great example serves as a true tribute to Mercedes-Benz’s luxurious post-war models.

From the remnants of World War II, Mercedes-Benz embarked on a new chapter, and the 170 S became the brand’s first true high-end model of the post-war era. Painted in an elegant two-tone white and blue finish, this classic exudes the sophistication that defined Mercedes-Benz in the 1950s.

*A Carefully Restored Example*
This Mercedes-Benz 170 S has been restored by a true enthusiast, and it shows in every detail. Both mechanically and aesthetically, the car is in very neat condition.

- Exterior – The paintwork boasts a deep, lustrous shine, the chrome elements are beautifully polished, and the classic whitewall tires provide a timeless look.
- Interior – The leather upholstery looks fantastic, the dashboard instruments are in pristine condition, and the headliner and carpets are well-preserved.
- Mechanically – The engine runs smoothly, the gearbox shifts effortlessly, and the driving experience is exactly what you would expect from a Mercedes of this caliber.

This 170 S was even featured in a renowned classic car magazine, where the previous owner passionately detailed the restoration process and his love for the car. A beautiful keepsake that makes the story of this vehicle even more tangible.

*A Stylish and Comfortable Driver’s Car*
Introduced in 1949, the Mercedes-Benz 170 S was designed as a more luxurious and powerful version of the 170 V. It was equipped with a 1,767cc four-cylinder engine featuring an aluminum cylinder head, producing 52 horsepower—a 37% increase over its predecessor.

The Mercedes-Benz 170 S was renowned for exceptional ride comfort, thanks to:

- Independent front suspension with dual wishbones and coil springs
- Enhanced rear suspension with a wider track and telescopic shock absorbers
- Expertly tuned suspension, ensuring a smooth and refined driving experience

Positioned as an executive saloon, the 170 S was aimed at entrepreneurs, doctors, and business professionals who demanded style, comfort, and reliability. This particular example still embodies that elegance and offers an unparalleled classic driving experience.

Produced between 1949 and 1955, the Mercedes-Benz 170 S marked a significant milestone for Mercedes-Benz. It bridged the gap between pre-war and post-war generations and helped define the luxury sedans that would later shape the brand’s DNA.
