Red as love: The 280 SE Cabrio for the bon vivant

One look is all it takes to start waxing lyrical. Yes, the German auto makers of the Economical Miracle age also had the ability to build dream cars! WIKING introduced the Mercedes-Benz 280 SE as a red convertible with a bright interior that drew attention from far off. This limousine with the captivating body of a classic bears the authentic WIKING signature of production decades that are now long gone. With the 280 SE, WIKING's master model maker Alfred Kedzierski had crafted yet another car of dreams, which was manufactured under the patronage of WIKING head Fritz Peltzer in the approximate 1:90 scale of the time. The traditional model makers have now given this miniature an update following the revamp of a previously lost interior that has now been re-birthed from new moulds.
