Vehicle description
A world-class survivor with only 49,722 miles. Rare color. No rust top or bottom. Original chrome, original paint, exceptional leather interior. This MB was stored in an environment that preserved this beauty for 50 years. Recently serviced and new brakes. The 220 sedan was introduced at the first international West German automobile show in Frankfurt in April of 1951. It was a very popular model and proved to be a sales success over the next five years. When the 220S was introduced at the same show in 1956, it featured a host of mechanical improvements as well as a larger, more elegant body. Production of the new model lasted until the end of 1959. The 6-cylinder engine of 2195 cc displacement featured a single overhead camshaft and two downdraft Solex carburetors. The transmission was a synchromesh 4-speed manual unit with a column shift. The fully independent suspension was by coil springs all around and featured the famous single-pivot swing axle at the rear. Overall, the new sedan was a much more refined edition of the models that preceded it.
