Mercedes-Benz 220 Cabriolet - 1959 to 1961

The Mercedes was a very nice car, and very well made. All of the switches and knobs had a solid feel about them, everything worked perfectly and nothing broke down.

It was medium grey with red leather upholstery, the armchairs were very comfortable, and there was burred walnut veneer everywhere. The convertible roof was so well paded that you couldn't hear the rain drops.

The 2.2 litre 6 cylinder engine was smooth running and economical.
