The 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE with 5-speed manual transmission is one of the most refined and technically advanced variants of the W108 series. 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. The presence of fifth gear (overdrive) significantly improves the highway experience, reducing noise and consumption at high speeds. With a top speed of 190 km/h and a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 10.5 seconds , this sedan perfectly combines the W108 chassis lacquer with a more sporty control and higher efficiency than the standard versions.
