Our Benz beauty


This is our beauty - a Mercedes Benz 1951, 170 S model.

We bought it from Sweden in 2003, shortly after it had been thoroughly renovated. In the glove compartment there are still the original German and Swedish user manuals. We have cared well for the car since it came to our country of fire and ice, only taking it out for short rides when the sun shines such as on the image below. It has been used for weddings and also taken part in classic car parades.


The engine, attended by a seasoned mechanic this fall, is 1767 cc and gives 52 horsepower. It is in mint condition and runs very smoothly. The interior of the car is very fine with rusty beige colored plush upholstery everywhere, and the exterior mostly very good, although there are small spots here and there like wrinkles on the skin of an old gentleman.

Please look at the photos and on the three videos that were custom made for us to show the car. These images really give a better picture than many words.

The car is for sale as the owners want to focus on other interests. Please contact by email at hrifunes@gmail.com.

Do you have stories of your experience of this type of Mercs'? Feel free to comment.
