The 1964 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Coupe (Generation W111) was the model that set the new standards of elegance for luxury coupes of the 1960s. This vehicle is powered by the M127 engine, a 2195 cm3 Gasoline engine with 6 cylinders in line and the Bosch mechanical injection system, which produces 120 hp / 118 HP / 88 kW at 4800 rpm and a 189 Nm torque at 3900 rpm. Equipped with a 4-speed manual gearbox and retraction (RWD), this model achieves a top speed of 170 km/h and accelerates from 0-100 km/h in approximately 12 seconds . With a length of 4880 mm and the iconic “pillarless” design created by Paul Bracq, the 220 SE Coupe remains one of the most refined cars of the era, combining injection technology with superior build quality.

Summary

The 1964 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Coupe (W111) is praised for its perfect balance between luxury and mechanical durability. The M127 injector engine was very advanced for the time, offering a much more regular operation than the carburetor versions. The most prominent feature of this model is the "notchback" body style without a central pillar, which when all the windows are lowered, creates an open side space that gives the car an extremely elegant look. Although not a sports car in the modern sense, the 4-speed manual gearbox allows for good power control on the open road. Restoring these tools requires attention to the details of the chrome and wood in the cabin, while mechanically they are known as tools that can cover hundreds of thousands of kilometers with proper maintenance.
