If I owned these, I would not drive them instead I would put them straight into my living room as pieces of art to admire. What a lovely pair; I ❤it!

The most beautiful car i've ever seen in my life.

[antoniomaria]

I have a 1963 MB 220 SE; it's dark blue with a navy blue canvas top! the interior is light camel-coloured leather and the steering wheel is ivory white; the engine is an in-line six-cylinder with 120hp of power; it has four disc brakes with servo brakes, power steering, suspension height adjuster, and absolutely amazing handling; it drives like a modern Mercedes! !!! and yes, I've been blessed by a German guardian angel, who loves driving along the seafront with the top down on late summer evenings in Portugal! An exceptional car!

I hope this car restoration workshop stays open for many, many years, because it is rare to have someone who is a perfectionist in mechanics and put in a really new car with great care, perfect restoration in every detail. Congratulations

I have a C124 coupe and this just inspires me to just keep working on it to bring it back. Even the quality in the C124 is evident but I have to say these are my favourite more modern M-B. Coupe or Cabriolet…ahh…I think I’d just have both!…because when you’re at that motoring level, you just can! 😉

Thank you for the video! My Dad had a 1971 280SE 3.5 coupe and I have fond memories of learning to drive on that car. What you do not mention is what a beast the car was on the road. It could lope along all day at 85 mph and its acceleration from 80 to 110 is the best of any car I have driven. My Dad had a 911S before this and I think the MB was supposed to be a way to get a more family--friendly car, but there was certainly no loss of driving performance or pleasure. None at all.

The car was also just plain gorgeous. The beautiful wood (ours was a lighter burled color), the interior leather that complemented the exterior color, the quality of the stereo, the way every door jamb had beautiful sliver chrome lining as seen at 10:03 in the video and the distinct way the doors would thunk and the transmission would shift; it all screamed quality.

I spent a lot of time washing and waxing that car since we lived only 200 yards from the ocean in South Florida and had to constantly and vigilantly fight the salt air buildup on the car's surfaces. But I enjoyed that activity, which really made you appreciate the subtle beauty of the lines and all the chrome. You could really make that thing glow in a beautiful way, They just do not build them that way any more.

Thank you for bringing back all the good memories.

Automóveis muito bonitos, e clássicos . Para quem tem bom gosto.

Exquisite design and execution. I would always pick the convertible as most of the time you can’t drive fast and there’s nothing as lovely as cruising round in a gorgeous soft top on a nice day.

Absolutely awesome. Complete automotive works of art

…the silhouette of the coupe is a tad sharper and sleeker while the cabriolet has a softer contour which is what I think showcases an elegant regality to its stance. I lucked out for I inherited a 1971 280 SE 3.5 Cabriolet from my Grandmother in 1989. It’s has been meticulously taken care of in its original state with 37K miles. I get to drive her every so often in and around the Silicon Valley where she still gets a lot of attention. I also have Grandfather’s 1972 280 SEL 4.5 that I have driven since I’ve been 16 in 1985. So a coupe will be nice to have and round up my 280 fleet.

Absolute beauties for these two cars !!!!

[davidsherrick]

I have only owned 4 Mercedes-Benz all 'vintage ' as of now. But the W111 are beautiful! I love the coupe, but nothing like a convertible! Both amazing! My 3 w124's or w201 can't compare to these beautiful masterpieces. Great video!
