Introduced at the Frankfurt Auto Show in April 1951, the Mercedes-Benz 220 was in effect a six-cylinder cousin to the four-cylinder 170S on the same 2, 845mm-wheelbase chassis. Although closely based on the 170S, the 220 featured more modern styling with headlamps integrated into the wings. With 80bhp on tap courtesy of its 2. 2-litre overhead-camshaft engine, delivered via a four-speed manual gearbox, the 220 saloon was good for a top speed of around 140km/ h (87mph) - as was the Cabriolet B - with 145km/ h (90mph) attainable by the Cabriolet A drophead coupé. In the best Mercedes-Benz tradition, both of these convertible models were exceptionally well equipped. Combined Cabriolet A/ B production amounted to only 2, 360 units in five years, 997 of which were the Cabriolet B version, as seen here. Today these exclusive models are both rare and highly sought after.
This particular Mercedes-Benz Cabriolet B was purchased by the current owner at a French auction in November 1994. The Mercedes has been serviced regularly by local specialists in France. Presented in nice condition both inside and out, the car comes with invoices for works and maintenance; the 1994 bill of sale; a French Carte Grise; an up-to-date Contrôle Technique; and an expertise report.
