For Sale: Original owner's manual in German for a 280/280S/280SEL, $10.00 including free shipping in USA. A great addition to a manual collection and a nice novelty for the 280 owner plus the possibility of information not in the USA version of the manual.

This Owner's Manual for a 280/280S/280SEL was found in a 1983 Mercedes badged "500SEL." It was probably a gray market or privately imported car. The manual has 104 pages and is completely written in German. The part number is 126 584 53 96.

The manual has instructions for both manual and electric seats and windows, 4-speed and 5-speed manual transmission and automatic transmission, three kinds of radios, manual and automatic climate control, and much more.

No writing of any kind -- not even the owner's name. Page 17/18 has a large chunk torn out and missing -- the only defect.
