Description
Produced in only 830 examples between 1949 and 1951, only a handful remain today: fewer than 10 worldwide ...
The most exclusive of the W136 range, with the S for "Sonder Model", a superior level of quality and comfort, appreciated by the wealthy customers of the time: "The first-class car" as it was nicknamed! This vehicle was bought 21 years ago by its current owner, who is passionate about beautiful old cars and mechanics, from a well-known museum.
It was fully restored in the 2000s and made as reliable as possible for regular use with complete confidence (Model 180A rocker engine, brake assist, 12-volt power supply). Since then, it has been regularly maintained by its owner with professionals, and has undergone a number of repairs (shock absorbers, front axle, brakes, radiators, exhausts, battery, tyres, etc.) using approved parts. It also undergoes a Technical Inspection every 2 years! The soft top is completely waterproof and made of Alpaca. This MERCEDES 170 S Type A is now in superb condition and can be driven to any distance in exceptional condition! Once registered in 1950, its year of production, it triggers admiration, photographs and exchanges between enthusiasts every time it is driven! What's more, this unique model is a real investment!
