This book looks at the history and development of the models, from the 220SE coupe's introduction at the 1961 Frankfurt show, where it lost the limelight to a certain Jaguar, to the hugely collectable 280SE3.5 convertible of 1971, and its sedan brethren, including the monstrous 300SEL6.3. These cars were close to perfection when they left the factory. With hundreds of detail shots of some of the best cars from Europe and America, combined with a smattering of archive material, the book aims to provide a definitive guide to originality for these cars, to appeal to owners, restorers and enthusiast alike.
