Description

1972 Mercedes Benz 280 SE (W108)59k Miles, Superb Condition throughout!We are pleased to present this beautifully preserved example of the Mercedes Benz 280 SE, finished in Classic White (050) over an immaculate, distinctive green interior. A true icon of the W108 series and a car that represents the height of German engineering and luxury in the early 1970s. This particular car was originally supplied as a UK right hand drive car before being exported to the United States, (believed to be relocated with a British oil industry professional) to the dry climate of Arizona. Where the car remained before being repatriated to the UK in early 2017, where it has since been garaged and enjoyed for occasional weekend use.Power comes from the super smooth M130 2.8 litre inline six, known for its reliability and refinement, paired with the original column shift automatic transmission. The car remains in excellent health, with recent work including reconditioned brake calipers, oil and filter change, and a full mechanical checkover. A first time MOT pass was just recored with no advisories. There are no oil leaks present and the car starts with ease every time. The interior is a really lovely place to be. The green upholstery is beautifully retro and is in wonderful original condition. The factory Blaupunkt stereo and electric aerial remain fully functional, and colour coded green seatbelts have been added front and rear for safety and family usability. The body work is completely solid with no signs of corrosion other than a couple of tiny stone chips around a couple of the wheel arches. The paintwork is generally very good, with just the odd small mark here and there but yet it polishes up to an impressive shine for a 53 year car.With low mileage, original condition and years spent in the dry Arizona climate, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a clean, well preserved example. The engine runs smoothly, and the column shift auto delivers relaxed, effortless cruising. Now available for the first time in years, ready for its next chapter.Viewings by appointment only. UK delivery and worldwide shipping available.

Dealing with Oli at Bure Valley Classics was a pleasure. I was traded a 997 for a 3.2 Carrera, and while I had limited knowledge of the 3.2, Oli walked me round the beautifully prepared car, pointing out both the good points and those areas needed attention (car was priced accordingly). I feel I have had a well informed and fair transition from water to air cooled thanks to Oli. Most impressive is that post sale, when a hidden brakes issue arose, Oli sorted it with no fuss at all, and that’s the true measure of customer service for me. Thank you Bure Valley Classics

Fantastic experience on buying my first Porsche from Oli. Zero pressure and completely genuine. Took the time to talk to me on what was important to me but also on why the car was a good purchase. Highly recommend Bure Valley Classics and Oli

Just completed the sale of my much loved AK Cobra which Oli facilitated. Buyer found and sale completed extremely promptly, impressive given it was a slightly niche vehicle. Overall great service and an all round first class set up! Will definitely seek Oli's help when looking for my next toy!!

I entrusted Oli to sell my air-cooled 911 after a positive experience when i was looking a year earlier. I'd heartedly recommend him to anybody thinking of buying or selling. A true gentleman in an industry full of sharks.

Oli managed to source my dream 911 (964 Turbo) his excellent knowledge of the market and many contacts enabled my successful purchase- I have now bought 2 Porsche 911’s from Burre Valley Classics and can fully recommend them - fabulous service and communication- already looking for my next 911 to add to my collection:))))

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Oli on the purchase of my first and stunning 997.2. I can highly recommend Bure Valley Classics for purchasing your first or next classic car.

I’ve now taken ownership of the amazing 993 RS Homage from Oli. Everything about Bure Valley is top class! A wonderful setting and a great selection of cars always on offer. Oli was great to deal with and was super helpful from start to finish. I took advantage of the delivery service and the car arrived in pristine condition and ready to go. I will soon be looking to add another 911 to the garage and the first place I’ll be looking is Bure Valley! Highly recommended.

From my first conversation with Oli to the completion of the transactions which involved the buying and selling of two classic Porsches I had first rate personal service and satisfaction. Highly recommended.
