For fairly obvious reasons, few Mercedes-Benz cars reached Britain in the late 1930s which was Britain’s loss because, then as now, the company made superb, technically advanced motor cars. Introduced in 1932, the 200 series was unusual for the time in that it had all independent suspension.
Total production for all 200 models was only 15,622 units so today, any 200 is a comparatively rare car. No detailed production records exist since the car was assembled at Mercedes-Benz’s Mannheim plant which did not survive the war, but it is reasonable to assume that the cabriolet is among the rarest of the 200 variants.
This classic 2 door Mercedes-Benz Cabriolet has received a ground up restoration over several years by different specialists and the result is stunning. Presented today in two tone grey with a tan hood and fresh leather interior, this pre war car was delivered new to Germany and, as we understand, spent its whole life here. This is a car ready for touring, show or participating in classic events and allows travelling in style for up to 4 persons plus luggage.
