Inside thisMercedes-Benz saloonthere's asports car waitingto getout. You'd be forgiven for thinking that

developed to give road-holding when other cars would lose their self control so you and not the road surface, will be in control. If it wasn't a Mercedes-Benz such a triumph of engineering would probably raise an eyebrow or two. But then, if it wasn't a Mercedes-Benz, would such a triumph of engineering be possible anyhow?

this is a Saloon Car Pure and Simple. But don't be fooled. The 280E bears more than a passing resemblance to the sporting 280SL. The 280E will eagerly offer up a full-blooded 185 Din/HP at a touch of a pedal. And its stable-mate, the 230E will give you 136 Din/HP. The suspension system has been

Engineered like no other car in the world.
