Mercedes-Benz 230 S for sale in good condition With the W111 series, Mercedes-Benz wrote a unique chapter in German automotive history in the early 1960s. Its distinctive tail fins earned the car the nickname "Heckflosse" (Fintail) and made this sedan instantly recognizable, while beneath the bodywork, Mercedes focused primarily on safety: the W111 was the world's first production car to feature a crumple zone and a rigid safety cell. It is precisely this combination of elegance and solid engineering that makes the Heckflosse a favorite among enthusiasts to this day. From 1965 onwards, the 230 S served as the sporty flagship of the six-cylinder petrol lineup; its 2.3-liter inline-six engine, equipped with dual carburetors, produces approximately 120 hp, giving the car a surprisingly smooth yet powerful character. Power is delivered to the rear wheels via a manual transmission, making driving this classic a truly engaging experience. This 230 S is in good condition and has been carefully maintained.
Red Mercedes-Benz 230 S for sale The red paintwork complements the clean, timeless lines of the Heckflosse beautifully and is elegantly accented by the abundant chrome trimincluding the wide grille with the classic hood-mounted star, the side moldings, and the window surrounds. Whitewall tires paired with original hubcaps featuring the Mercedes star give the car a delightful retro feel, perfectly capturing the spirit of the 1960s. Inside, you will find a black interior that contrasts beautifully with the red paintwork. The spacious, stitched black vinyl seats, the black dashboard with wood accents and chrome details, the classic white steering wheel, and the matching door panels combine to create an elegant and well-presented cabin. The entire interior exudes the relaxed luxury for which Mercedes-Benz was renowned during that era.
