Vehicle Description
1968 Mercedes Benz 250. The Mercedes-Benz W114 and W115 models are
a series of executive sedans and coup�s introduced in 1968 by
Mercedes-Benz, manufactured until model year 1976, and
distinguished in the marketplace by names relating to their engine
size. W114 models featured six-cylinder engines and were marketed
as the 230, 250, and 280, while W115 models featured four-cylinder
engines and were marketed as the 200, 220, 230, and 240. All were
styled by Paul Bracq, featuring a three-box design. At the time
Mercedes marketed sedans in two size classes, with the W114/W115
positioned below the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Beginning in 1968,
Mercedes marketed their model range as New Generation Models,
giving their ID plates the designation '/8' (due to their 1968
Launch year). Because they were the only truly new cars of the
so-called 'New Generation' and because of the '/8' or 'slash eight'
designation, W114 and W115 models ultimately received the German
nickname Strich Acht, loosely translated into English as stroke
eight. Please Note The Following **Vehicle Location is at our
