This 1964 Mercedes-Benz 300SE Lang was originally produced by Mercedes-Benz as 1 of 5 Exhibition cars used for car shows and demonstrations. It was later purchased by the Royal Family of The Netherlands before making its way into a sizable private collection in Germany. It was purchased by the current owner in 2019 and resides in Calabasas, CA currently. This rare sedan is finished in Dark Blue (332) over Blue Leather & Cloth with power provided by a 3.0L M189 I6 paired to a 4-speed manual column shift. Features include a factory partition with power glass, a Blaupunkt radio with matching rear speaker, manual windows, rear curtains, factory air suspension, and more. The car previously underwent refurbishment in 2006 with Bud’s Benz outside of Atlanta, Georgia. It’s since been maintained under multiple owners with the current owner ensuring maintenance via a private technician. Work under the current owner’s care includes refurbishing the ignition switch, an exhaust manifold leak repair, refurbished brake calipers, a refurbished master cylinder, rebuilt suspension, new shocks, and new tires. This 300SE Lang is now offered by the current owner with a clean California title out of Calabasas, CA.
The car is finished in Dark Blue (332) as was the original color of this sedan when new. Only 1,546 long wheelbase examples were produced by Mercedes-Benz and featured an extra 10cm (3.94 in.) in length. The brightwork is noted to be in great condition along with glass, and accessories. A correct model designation badge is noted on the decklid and no major exterior blemishes are mentioned.
