THEMA: 300SE 3.5 ?

Geschrieben von Clem am 17. Oktober 2006 16:42:33:

Hello everyone,
Anyone ever heard of a W112 300SE 3.5 coupe? It looks very much like the 280Se 3.5.
Any idea of their value relative to the W111 280Se 3.5 coupes (assuming condition etc. all the same).
Regards,

Clem

There has never been a 300 SE 3,5 W112! It is probably a W112 300SE with a 3,5 liter engine (M116). An original 300SE W112 is more worth than a 300SE with 3,5 liter engine.

best regards

Stefan

Thanks Stefan. That is what I thought too but someone is offering one for sale and says that only 100 of these were built. I have asked for a VIN number and if it arrives I will check it with Mercedes and let you know what comes up.
Grussen,

That person lies! The 3,5 liter was presented in August of 1969 (as 300SEL 3,5 W109 and 280SE 3,5 Coupé/Cabriolet W111) and the w112 300SE was only produced until December of 1967.
