1985 T Series Brochure

This was the last T series brochure that Mercedes released in the UK.   Its noticeably more sophisticated than the ones they released in the late 1970.   It does not contain any of the rather bizzare photos that may amuse you in the 1978 brochure you can also view on this site.

Here is a sample of the sales pitch:

"Cars that are practical are rarely attractive.  The Mercedes-Benz T series proves that thisdoes not have to be so.  In spite of its high standard of functionality, the styling id by no means impaired."

"Mercedes-Benz do not accept the idea of diminishing the individuality of a car in order to make savings.  So the T series is another example of the fact that a Mercedes is still, today, a recognisably individual car."

"The combination of the classic saloon car shape and estate-car functionality in the flowing lines of the T series have gained general acceptance as being ideal for this type of car."

This beautiful photo is on page 3 of the brochure

Proof that a T is no longer than a saloon !

Seven different seat options (not quite as many as that Vauxhall thing)
