Buying a 1957 Mercedes Benz 300D

The fourth generation of the prestigious and luxurious Type 300 Adenauer line, the 1957 Mercedes Benz 300D offered 160hp with Bosch fuel injection, and a compression ratio of 8.55:1. The ultimate luxury car of the 1950's, the Mercedes 300D and its sister models were praised as the most sophisticated and exceptionally engineered saloon cars of the era. This recognition was particularly true when you compared the 300 chassis and engine with the other luxury brands of the time. Different from the 300C in that it was fuel injected instead of using carburetors, the 300D also featured a flatter, squared-up roofline, a slightly wider grille, longer rear fenders, and a 4-inch longer wheelbase. Additionally, a 3-speed transmission was offered. Mercedes enthusiasts as well as classic car aficionados will tell you, the 1957 Mercedes Benz 300D was by far the most attractive of the Type 300 line. As one might imagine, it is the most sought-after in its convertible form.
