A classic in design by a french man of couse. possiblly one of the last cars built to a level of quality not cost.
Features 4 speed auto.aircon, electronic fuel injection (bosch) disks all round, IRS double wishbone front end. A fantastic M110 motor with twin cams and and a very respectable 185 HP not bad for 1973. My car is in the resore stage, no rust and I have just finished the engine rebuild and front subframe refit. should be on the road mid 2011.Jan 01, 2011

I nice classic car. Very smooth ride with all the creature comforts. It had an inline six but wasn't very fast off the line but a great cruising car. No real issues with it other than some rust started to show.Dec 30, 2008

So far has been costly in restoration, but will be a wonderful motor once its fully fixed up.Mar 15, 2008
What users have asked
On a 1973 Mercedes 280 (stored in a garage since 1992!) when the battery is connected the drivers side front and rear running lights stay on even with the ignition switch off. Any ideas why?
On a 1973 Mercedes 280 the drivers side front and rear running lights stay on even with the ignition key removed. Passenger side lights turn off properly.What switch or junction box could cause this, and where is it located? Could it be mouse chewing damage to some wire?

automatic transmission
Hi: I have a 1973 280 with the six cylinder gas and 4 speed auto trans. It had been sitting for some time, but have it running now. There is a slight delay going into reverse, and it jumps a bit when shifting into the next gear forward. Also, by counting the shifts, it seems to be in 4th, but at 40 or 50 mph it seems to be revving way too high?
