MERCEDES-BENZ 250CE/280CE COUPE

2-door 5-seater hardtop coupé.

Work this out for yourselves - floorpan, inner structure and running gear of Type W114 saloons, but with smart, sleek, rather characterless fixed-head two-door coupé style. CE = Coupé injection, there also being non-injected models sold elsewhere. UK market had 250CEs to mid-1972, 280CEs thereafter, most with power steering and windows, automatic transmission, and so on. Up to 125mph in great comfort, with soft and supple handling. For the connoisseur, today, at a price.
