Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

The only one of tis type known. Restored by Lecoq in 1993 with 12,700 km carefully put on the odometer since. A lovely car of the highest quality.

Market commentary

The bidders here in Monaco recognized this Mercedes for what it is, a rare and quite exceptional example of quality coachwork on a mundane Mercedes chassis. They looked past the boring flathead six engine and bought the coachwork and the Lecoq restoration which looks nearly as fresh today as it did when completed 15 years ago and before the 12,700 km were put on it. Not cheap, but unique which is worth a lot when combined with quality and luxury.
