Inside, the seats are in dark green leather with a visible patina, over green carpets, facing a burr wood dashboard and a thin-rimmed steering wheel with a chrome horn ring. Outside, the car has a steel sliding sunroof, yellow-tinted headlamps and chrome-ringed hubcaps with painted centres.

The car is located in Balma, France.

The car is located in Balma, France. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How does the mileage of this Mercedes-Benz compare?

6,638 km recorded, against a median of 11,103 km across the Mercedes-Benz advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the lower-mileage cars currently listed. Service history and previous owners are not published on LUSSO and should be confirmed with the selling dealer.

Which other Mercedes-Benz are priced closest to this one?

Who is selling this Mercedes-Benz 280 SE, and how does a purchase work?

Modena Sport, a professional dealer in Balma, France. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Mercedes-Benz 280 SE be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Balma, France, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history: LUSSO does not publish these and cannot confirm them.

Is this Mercedes-Benz 280 SE still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Modena Sport before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.
