Mercedes-Benz 280 SE (1969)
I keep showing appreciation for the SL’s passionate design, and very rarely these saloons (quite literally saloons).
It just so happens that I saw one of these a few days ago, while driving back from the beach on a very sunny day. I never accounted for the cool factor these W108 have when properly maintained. I was green with envy and immediately wanted to sell my car.

Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 W111 (1970)
A long but important name for a car which isn’t your ordinary vintage Benz.
This young lady is about to sit in one of the few and really expensive 280SE 3.5, an exclusive version of these W111 coupés & cabriolets which featured eight cylinders instead of the traditional six.
Also, she has found a man who opens the door for her and wears a proper suit for that special occasion, or maybe just while taking her shopping.
