1968 Mercedes-Benz 230 S W111 (Automatic / 4 Gears) RWD [1959-1968]

Summary

The Mercedes-Benz 230 S (W111) in the 1968 automatic version represents the pinnacle of comfort for the "tail" limousine series. Increasing the cylinder capacity to 2.3 liters helped significantly cope with the power losses caused by the automatic hydraulic box, making the vehicle feel more alive than the older 2.2-litre versions. This model is especially appreciated for its excellent acoustic insulation and suspension softness, elements that made it a leader in the luxury segment. Although fuel consumption remains high, the stability of the engine WITH Zenith resin carburetors and the high quality of the interior materials (wood and real leather) make this car a highly desirable collection tool. It is a true "classic cruiser" that retains the prestige of Mercedes-Benz in every detail of engineering.
