Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Fog lights, fender mirrors, origil Becker radio, blackwall tires on steel wheels with hubcaps. Restored in the mid 80s and little used since although showing its age. Carpets are a little soiled, shift knob cracked, sound paint and interior.

Market commentary

Priced right in pounds but pricey when converted to dollars. With only 80hp the 220 is an acquired taste but its Mercedes Benz quality means it will always be appreciated by collectors.
