In 1972 the SEL fitted with 3.5 small block V8 was the flagship offering for Mercedes-Benz. The 3.5 was equipped with the latest Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection and a four-speed automatic transmission (using a fluid coupling) as standard equipment. The longer wheelbase 280 SEL had power steering as standard and an option for these models in Australia was Air Conditioning which this example has. Beautifully engineered, the original S-class was years ahead of the competition.
Our 280 SEL 3.5 is a well cared for example and presents nicely. While a perfect Club Car this 3.5 would be suited to more frequent daily driving as it is still on full registration. We welcome your enquiry to go through further details and answer questions you may have.
