The 1.5 Series was only built for 1 year. Features are the popular 280 M110 engine and the smooth tail lights. /8 series 1.5 Coupes are therefore very rare and gain a special Popularity.

The M110 engine with the two overhead camshafts is naturlly aspired through carburetors.

Being in private ownership for the last 17 years it was very well maintained as a garage car during this time. The Car comes with complete documentation of many invoices and all TÜV reports.

In 2008, the car was repainted and the engine was overhauled in early 2020 for just under 4,000 euros. The automatic transmission was completely overhauled in 2019 for 2,000 euros.

The vehicle was purchased in 2003 with four previous owners and is in very well kept condition. It looks exactly as it left the factory. 

Anyone who decides to buy a car like this has to do so out of passion and enjoyment of electronics-free technology of the 60s or 70s. The vehicle has no repair backlog, is fully suitable for everyday use and is an honest car. Welding work is not necessary and the “usual” spots on a /8 coupe from these years are flawless. 

Whether as a private purchase or also as a business car with leasing (new price of the car in 1971 was 23,500 DM or 11,500 Euro), the car is the perfect entry into the classic Mercedes world. With its absolutely timeless design and as a reliable daily cruiser with value appreciation, the Coupe stands out in road traffic and creates sympathy.

Above all, however, it gives pleasure to the owner!
