This W111-generation Mercedes-Benz 280 SE 3.5 is an elegant classic pillarless coupe, believed to be one of only 245 right-hand drive examples. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 3.5-litre V8, producing around 172kW and driving the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. The odometer is calibrated in miles, though some historic service entries may have been recorded in kilometres. The seller notes that the odometer was not reading correctly for a period, but was repaired and recalibrated, and they believe that the current reading is consistent with the history on file. The odometer shows 44,008 miles, but this is not warranted. Build year: 1970 This 280 SE is finished in white, over a Cognac leather-trimmed interior featuring burr wood veneer trim inlays. It rides on a set of 14-inch steel wheels, which wear body-coloured hubcaps with Mercedes-Benz logos, and are wrapped in mixed Hankook and Maxxis tyres. The cabin features electric windows, an analogue clock, and an updated Sony stereo. Accompanying the vehicle will be the owner’s manuals and an extensive maintenance history dating back to 1994. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: The interior woodwork has previously been refurbished by Blackmans Interior Repair Centre, where all timber was refinished, carpets replaced, and seat leather cleaned and treated. The most recent maintenance was completed in May 2025 at 43,820 miles, where Uncle Leo’s Garage completed an oil and filter change, underbody and suspension inspection, and checks of transmission, brakes, steering and tyres. Fluids inspected and replenished included the power steering, automatic transmission, radiator coolant, and washer fluid. In May 2022 at 39,013 km, Uncle Leo’s Garage replaced the rocker cover seals and air filter, reset the valve clearances, and serviced the engine and transmission. The starter motor was repaired in November 2021 at 38,488 km by A.L.S. Automotive Service. The engine oil and filter were changed in April 2021 at 36,352 miles by Lanza Automotive Services. Major mechanical work has included a full engine refurbishment and timing chain replacement by Starline Motors in 2001, a gearbox rebuild by Arthur Rizzo Motors the same year, and a second timing-chain renewal and tappet adjustment by Auto Euro in 2010. The automatic transmission was rebuilt again in 2011 with new mounts, gaskets, clutch plates, and a steering coupling installed. The cooling system was overhauled in 2019 with a new water pump, thermostat, and radiator cap. The suspension, steering, and braking systems have been progressively renewed, with new mounts, bushings, shock absorbers, and linkages fitted by Rizzo, Mercstar, and Starline Motors. The odometer and speedometer were repaired and recalibrated by Howard Instruments and Lonsdale St Auto Electrics. The seller notes that all mechanical works completed are documented with invoices available with the car. This W111-generation Mercedes-Benz 280 SE 3.5 Coupe is an elegant classic pillarless coupe, believed to be one of only 245 right-hand drive examples produced. Accompanied by an extensive history showing continuous maintenance over the last three decades, it would make a charming addition to any assembly of classics, and a thoroughly elegant companion for weekend drives or special events.
