The 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE with automatic transmission was one of the most prestigious limousines of the time, combining injection technology with maximum comfort. This vehicle is powered by the M130 E28 engine, a 2778 cm3 Bosch Mechanical Injection Gasoline unit, which produces 160 hp / 158 hp/ 117.5 kW at 5500 rpm and a torque of 240 Nm at 4250 rpm. As it belongs to the W108 chassis, it uses traditional suspension with steel springs, offering a high durability and simpler maintenance than the SEL versions. The 4-speed automatic transmission provides extremely smooth gait, allowing the vehicle to reach a top speed of 185 km/h and a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 11.2 seconds .
