The classic Mercedes-Benz wedding car has all the refined iconic features of a classic wedding car but comes at a more affordable price than some other classic luxury wedding cars.

Classic Mercedes-Benz 250SE Coupe

Only 5,000 SE250 Coupes were made between 1965 and 1967.  Mercedes-Benz moved to automated production lines in the early 1970’s so our Coopers of Goodwood 1967 model is one of the last examples of a hand-built Mercedes-Benz luxury car – and our superb Mercedes-Benz SE250 Coupe is in pristine condition.

External features of Classic Mercedes-Benz Wedding car 

Coopers of Goodwood classic Mercedes-Benz SE250 Coupe is a true classic from 1960’s golden design era with its distinctive sleek long-bonnet silhouette and sweeping vintage curves.  Externally the Mercedes-Benz exudes typical classical car detail with chrome bumper, chrome headlights and of course the Mercedes-Benz iconic chrome front grille. The car is finished in warming soft ivory paint work with characteristic matching ivory wheels which were the ultimate must have style of the time. This ivory classic Mercedes-Benz provides a stunning visual backdrop for wedding photography.

Interior features of Classic Mercedes-Benz Wedding car 

Inside the quality of the hand crafted interior is second to none with leather seating and wood veneer finishes.

The red leather is iconic of 1960’s luxury cars where red interiors symbolised sophistication and personalisation.  The contrasting colour of the white steering wheel with the red leather is also typical of luxury cars made in the swinging 60’s, showing the owner had a sporty and rebellious edge.  The contrasting colours make this wedding car striking and works for both modern and traditional weddings.

Mercedes-Benz German Engineering

The Mercedes-Benz SE250 Coupe is a dream to journey in, as like all Mercedes-Benz of that era they were designed to comfortably cruise the German Autobahn. Although a two door Coupe there is spacious seating with ample leg room and large wide doors to get in and out of easily. Perfect for arranging long trains and wedding dresses so they remain crease free.

Mercedes-Benz 1960’s American Sophistication

In the 1960s, Americans loved Mercedes-Benz because the cars offered a brilliant alternative to the mass-engineered US designed vehicles. Buyers were drawn to the brand’s uncompromising engineering, and the sleek, understated elegance of the Mercedes-Benz brand.

Imported cars were a status symbol in 1960’s America. Driving a Mercedes-Benz signalled to peers that the owner was cultured, successful.  So it’s not surprising that these cars rapidly became favourites of international socialites and celebrities.   Burt Reynolds, the legendary action star of the era took delivery of a 1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SE Coupe – the exact same model as our Coopers of Goodwood classic Mercedes-Benz wedding car – while filming 100 Rifles in Spain in 1967.

Coopers of Goodwood Mercedes-Benz 250 SE Coupe is a great alternative to a classic American car.  It’s not as big and bulky but has that nostalgic nod to the swinging 1960’s with a touch more sophistication.
