Perfect as a car for club events, car shows, weddings and chauffeur functions, or simply to enjoy and even as an occasional commuter, this 1955 Mercedes-Benz 220 is guaranteed to turn heads. The model is a beautiful example of the popular German ‘Ponton’ series (1953-1963). This example is the W180 with the 2.2-litre six-cylinder petrol engine and four-speed manual transmission. It has a history of being well looked after and has been faithfully restored in recent years to ensure it remains reliable and comfortable. It is an original right-hand drive model with the six-cylinder engine fitted with two carburettors which have been recently rebuilt. It also has reconditioning work on the engine head and a rebuilt radiator and the fuel tank has been cleaned and treated. It also has new tyres and spares include an extra chrome hubcap. The body is unmarked and fresh in its burgundy paintwork. More recent work has included fitting two new stainless-steel bumpers and a new exhaust system. The upholstery has been restored and is unmarked while the timber dashboard is in very good original condition. The car is on concessional license plates. Inspection is in Perth southern suburbs. Additional information and photographs are available. Transport to any buyer location and inspection reports can be arranged at the buyer’s cost. While information supplied for this listing has been taken in good faith, prospective buyers should undertake their own research and investigation before purchase.
