Our customer offers for sale this 1972 Mercedes-Benz 280SEL 4.5 W108, a luxury sedan with a 4.5L V8 engine and automatic transmission. Originally from California, this vehicle has only minimal surface wear due to sun exposure. Over a two-year period, the body was restored, and the wooden interior inlays were refinished with precision. The paintwork looks good with just some small signs of use, while the chrome and aluminum components, though original, display minor signs of use.

The interior is in good condition, featuring the durable MB-Tex upholstery, which remains intact and clean. New carpets and perfectly finished woodwork highlight the care given to the restoration. The car is also equipped with automatic climate control and cruise control.

The Mercedes-Benz W108 series set new standards in safety and comfort when it debuted. It was among the first vehicles to feature crumple zones and a secure passenger cell. Equipped with four-wheel independent suspension, power disc brakes, and power steering, the W108 offered unmatched road comfort in its era. The 280SEL 4.5 was the pinnacle of this series, with its powerful V8 engine making it capable of cruising effortlessly even by modern standards. Today, it remains a sought-after classic for collectors and enthusiasts.
