1966 Mercedes 250 SE Coupe
The W108 was premièred at the Frankfurt Auto Show in 1965. The initial model lineup consisted of 250S, 250SE, and 300SE. Engines for the new car were carried over from the previous generation, but enlarged and refined. The 250S was the entry-level vehicle fitted with a 2496 cc Straight-six M108 engine, delivering 130 bhp, which accelerated the car to 100 km/h in 13 seconds, and gave a top speed of 182 km/h. The 250SE featured an identical straight-six, but with a six-plunger fuel injection system. Approximately 130,000 of the SE models were built during the first two years of the W108's existence. By 1967 the fuel consumption of the units was becoming increasingly uncompetitive.
