This 1956 Mercedes-Benz 220 S Cabriolet is a used car showing 2,471 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Dunkelblau / Teigbeige with a Beige interior.
The 220 S was the six-cylinder flagship of the Ponton family, and its open version, offered from July 1956, sat on a wheelbase shorter than the saloon's and was assembled at Sindelfingen. This one carries the two-tone scheme the dealer calls Dunkelblau mit Teigbeige: dark blue above, a pale beige along the flanks, with beige hide and a beige hood.
It was taken apart and rebuilt in Germany in a restoration completed in 2019. Paint and leather are said to be excellent, the finishing correct, and the engine quiet and smooth. A former owner had suitcases tailored for each of his cars, and the set made for this one travels with it.
The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.
The 220 S replaced the 220 a in March 1956 and the Cabriolet followed in July; 2,178 were built until October 1959, when the W111 generation took over.
