Description

The Appeal It was typical of Mercedes-Benz that the firm could spin a sleek, pillarless coupe out of the boxy and functional W114 saloon. These elegant, expensive four seat cars are rare finds today, yet practical ones if you need a classic with passenger and boot space. This enthusiast-owned car has been well known in Club circles, although it could do with a little TLC from the right buyer now. Finished in silver with a dark blue interior, it is complete and is therefore a good basis for restoration because interior parts are becoming scarce. The car could also be used as a basis for spares, but with W114 coupes becoming thin on the ground and this car evidently having led a loved life, we hope it receives the attention it deserves.
