Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

4,624cc/80hp side valve inline eight, varnished wood spoke wheels, Denman tires, Bosch headlights and spotlights, Notek backup light, windshield post mounted Melas semaphore signals, jump seats, pulldown shades, smokers kits, rollup division, top hinged w

Condition

Excellent paint with chips on the cowl from the hood. Brilliant chrome. Absolutely gorgeous and inviting interior both front and back. The gigantic trunk is not restored, shows age but should never be restored, it's too good as is. Clean, dry, neat engine compartment and chassis. This is a Mannheim bodied Nurburg restored to Singelfingen standards without going overboard and it is wonderful.

Market commentary

This is a 20-year old restoration and it still looks fresh and stunning. It is large and erect but make no mistake, it is stately, imposing and very much a Mercedes-Benz. It's so good, and so wonderful to contemplate, that the amount offered here was inappropriately low.
