Accurately describing this car as presenting very smartly indeed yet with just enough mellowed patina throughout to bring the car into the more affordable status of eminently usable. Being undoubtedly the most desirable variant of the timeless W113, prices for this specific model can often exceed £225,000 for an absolutely Concours fully restored example.
