On the road in the Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Cabriolet - injection luxury and a feel-good atmosphere

June 12, 2015 — Bruno von Rotz 71

From 1956 to 1960, Mercedes-Benz also built the 220 S and, from 1958, the 220 SE as a convertible and coupé. The two-door variants remained rare, as they were priced at the same level as a detached house, which was not conducive to their popularity. However, their exceptional status ensured a good survival rate. This driving report describes the history of the convertible and provides driving impressions, supplemented by many current and historical photographs.

The new Mercedes 220 S of 1959 - a star among stars

February 8, 2012 — Hans-Günther Wolf 25

The newcomer from Stuttgart, the Mercedes-Benz 220 S, could do everything better. At least that's how it sounded throughout the test report in the magazine 'hobby'. And the people at 'hobby' didn't make things easy for themselves and put the new model through its paces. This report reproduces the original wording of the 1959 test and shows the pictures from that time, as well as many factory photos from the period.
