Hello,

Yes it is a 250CE very rare in the US. This is a wonderful engine. Any 250C or 280C owner with the USA carbureted engine would love to have this engine! This 250CE had a very nice electronically fuel injected engine with little or no USA emmission equipment and high compression. Good power, fairly easy to work on, cold starts and idles well like all MB injected engines. It is a lighter and simpler engine than the mechanically fuel injected engine it replaced.

Would fit nicely in any W113 SL, most sedans of the era. Would be a project. You would need to take the wiring harness and the main "brain box" (ECU) mounted up under the dash.

At least pop the "brain box" out before it goes to the crusher. They are probably over $1K or NLA.
