Mercedes 220S Cabriolet
The Ponton models were the first without a separate chassis. The 220S Cabriolet was introduced at the Frankfurt Auto Show in September of 1955. The production cabriolet rolled off the assembly line in July of 1956. These cars were very luxurious for their time. This was achieved by adding lots of chrome, wood and leather. Still hand-built,… these elegant automobiles were very driveable. The platform for these fine automobiles are very different from their sedan counterparts. There are additional floor reinforcements to compensate for the absence of a roof, the overhang behind the rear wheel is longer. Longer doors made for a very appealing look to the car and to save weight, the doors were steel skimmed over alloy frames. Lower in weight, with better structural strength than the previous model, the 220 was a better handling car as well.

Produced until November 1960 there were only 5371 Ponton coupe and cabriolets built over the four years of production, making it a very rare automobile. Only 2178 220S Cabriolets were built.
Mercedes 220S Cabriolet
This Mercedes-Benz 220S Cabriolet was manufactured in 1959 and subsequently exported to the East Coast of America. It came to the UK in early 1990. The car then underwent a very high quality restoration, which was completed in 1992. With red coachwork and matching red leather interior this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a rare and much sought-after soft-top Mercedes-Benz. More information on: www.kucarfa.nl
