Mercedes-Benz built 6,526 examples of the 6.3 between 1967 and 1972, and this one combines gold metallic paint with red leather, a sliding sunroof and power steering.

The car has just been returned to full running order: the self-levelling air suspension has been overhauled, the automatic gearbox resealed and partly rebuilt, the fuel system renewed around a new pump, and the engine and cooling reworked. It wears German historic H plates, has a fresh TÜV inspection and is reported accident-free.

The car is located in Bielefeld, Germany.

FAQ

This Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 in the European market

Is this Mercedes-Benz priced above or below the European market?

At €54,900, it sits below the median of €139,730 for the 415 Mercedes-Benz advertised in Europe in 2026. 19% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Mercedes-Benz be bought in Germany and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Bielefeld, Germany. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. 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 much did this Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €20,022 in Germany, excluding options. This car is advertised at €54,900, 174% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1968 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

How does the mileage of this Mercedes-Benz compare?

233,100 km recorded, against a median of 17,500 km across the Mercedes-Benz advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

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

a 1989 car in Germany at €54,900, and a 2024 car in the United Kingdom at €53,761. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.
