The 1969 Mercedes-Benz 250 S was the entry-level model in the prestigious W108 series, offering the elegance of the S-Class with a more traditional mechanical configuration. This vehicle is powered by the M108 engine, a 2496 cm3 Gasoline unit with 2 Zenith 35/40 INAT carburettors, which produces 130 hp / 128 hp/ 95.5 kW at 5400 rpm and a torque of 194 Nm at 4000 rpm. Unlike the W109 series, this model uses conventional springs instead of air suspension, offering simpler and less costly maintenance. Equipped with 4-speed manual gearbox , the 250 S achieves a top speed of 180 km/h and accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 12.8 seconds , remaining a refined limousine that is valued for its durability and Paul Bracq’s timeless design.
