The seller offers for sale this 1969 Mercedes-Benz 250C powered by a 2.5-litre six-cylinder petrol engine paired with a manual gearbox. Originally built and sold in Germany, the car spent part of its life abroad before being re-imported and undergoing a repair and renovation process. The body and paintwork are largely in good condition, with only two small areas where the paint has begun to peel slightly. The car shows no visible rust or structural damage, and it has never been involved in an accident.
The interior displays typical wear consistent with age but remains complete and functional. Mechanically, the engine starts without issues, runs smoothly, and produces no smoke or unusual noises. The gearbox shifts normally and quietly. Lights and indicators function correctly, and the vehicle currently holds a valid inspection certificate.
The Mercedes-Benz 250C, part of the W114 series produced from 1968 to 1976, was among the most elegant coupés of its era. Designed by Paul Bracq, it combined classic Mercedes craftsmanship with a refined driving experience. Its inline-six engine provided smooth power delivery, while the coupe body offered understated sophistication. Today, the 250C remains a stylish and collectible choice for enthusiasts who appreciate 1960s Mercedes design and engineering quality.

The description of this car is, to the best of the seller’s knowledge, accurate and not misleading. Route 66 Auctions requests a range of detail about the car from the seller and performs a level of due diligence. However, potential buyers must independently satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the description. We strongly advise potential buyers to view or arrange inspections as well as conduct any research they feel is necessary before committing to bid or buy.
Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible cars to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be hard to see even upon visual inspection. Unless there is an explicit statement by the seller to the contrary, please assume that any vehicle could have had bodywork or paintwork. Photographs may not reflect the exact true colour or exact full condition of the vehicle. It is a bidder’s responsibility to assure themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy.
