Mercedes-Benz W112 listings14 for sale now
The Mercedes-Benz W112, sold as the 300SE, was the brand's range-topping model from 1961 to 1967. It shared its chassis and body with the W111 but offered a higher level of luxury, more chrome trim, and advanced mechanicals. Every W112 came standard with a 3.0L M189 aluminum inline-6 engine, power steering, and a sophisticated self-leveling air suspension.
Collectors prize the W112 for its blend of 1960s elegance and engineering prowess, particularly in the pillarless coupe and cabriolet forms. These two-door models are considered some of the most beautiful post-war Mercedes designs, featuring handcrafted interiors with extensive wood and leather. Their complexity, especially the air suspension and mechanical fuel injection, makes them a car for a dedicated enthusiast who appreciates the technology.
Buying Tips
- The air suspension is the single most expensive system to repair. Check that the car sits level, rises properly when started, and doesn't sag after being turned off.
- Rust is a major concern, so inspect the floor pans, trunk floor, rocker panels, and around the front and rear glass. Extensive chrome trim can hide serious corrosion underneath.
- The 3.0L M189 engine's Bosch mechanical fuel injection pump requires specialist knowledge for service and tuning. Ensure the engine runs smoothly without hesitation.
- Interior components like wood veneers and leather are extremely expensive to restore. Check for delaminating lacquer on the wood and assess all chrome trim for pitting and fit.
