Buying a 1952 Mercedes Benz 300S Cabriolet

In fact, they were the ultimate luxury car, transporting everyone from kings and prime ministers to famous actors and affluent businessmen.

The 1952 Mercedes 300S was available in several different forms. Buyers could choose from a 2+2 Coupe, a Cabriolet with functional landau bars, or as a Roadster that had no landau bars and a top that completely disappeared when folded back. In total, only 560 300S models would come off the production floor from September 1951 to August 1955; only 203 units were Cabriolet models. If you're thinking about buying a 1952 Mercedes Benz 300S Cabriolet, finding one that is available for sale will be your biggest challenge.
