1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SEL W108 (Automatic / 4 Gears) RWD [1968-1972]

The 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SEL with automatic transmission represents the pinnacle of comfort for the six-cylinder W108 series. This extended chassis (SEL) model offered extra legroom at the back, becoming a favorite of diplomats and senior executives. The Bosch M130 E28 Mechanical Injection Motor produces 160 hp / 158 hp / 117.5 kW , providing enough power to withstand the extra chassis weight and power losses from the automatic gearbox. With a top speed of 185 km/h , this vehicle offers an extremely smooth ride, combining the timeless elegance of Paul Bracq’s design with the reliability of traditional spring suspension.
