Mercedes Benz That Was Formerly Used By Malaysia IGP (1973-1992)

This car was formerly used by Tan Sri Abdul Rahman Hashim the third IGP. It’s a 1969 W114 Mercedes Benz 250. The colour of this maginificent car is light yellow and red MB Tex interior. He was shot inside this car on his way back to his house in 1973 however, this car had been restored and repaired.

The white Mercedes Benz is a 1974 230.6 and it was used by the longest serving IGP, Tun Haniff Omar. This car is a bullet proof car prior with the tragic demise of Tan Sri Abdul Rahman Hashim in 1973.  This car is a very heavy car prior with its extra thick glass. The photo below shows the interior of the  bullet proof car.

During his office terms as the IGP, he also received a 1982 Mercedes 250 as his official car. The car is like brand new car and very well maintained.

I am glad and proud to own one when seeing these.
