If you like rare-ish Benzes, have a little cash laying around, and are in the mood for something right-hand drive, then you’re probably already heading to the Historics at Brooklands auction coming up next month.

This gorgeous 1970 280SE 3.5 Cabrio (who doesn’t love older Benzos?) is one of only 55 RHD examples ever built and is expected to bring in between £70,000-90,000, or approximately $107,000-138,000. Under the hood is a 3.5 liter V8, which means that when the car came out it got those stacked headlights, beaucoup chrome, and rode one inch lower than its 6-cylinder sibling.

It sure is a looker, and the fact that it has a low 22,000 miles on the clock, makes it even more tempting.
