Up for auction is a

1991 Mercedes Benz 560 SEL with Euro Package, Sun Roof, Real Spoiler, side shields, and almost all of the options for 1991!

 

 The vehicle comes with a clear California Title and spent most of its life in California.  It was driven daily until today and will likely be used a few time this week so likely about 250 more miles by the sale time.  A few drops of three sap from the pines in the yard but it can come off easily and this MB Sedan will shine once again!  I will upload additional photos and information on the car soon.

 

Everything works as is should except the A/C will need a good boost.  Also, for some reason the alarm occasionally goes off so it was disconnected and I can show you how to reconnect it.  Sun roof and cruise work great.  The stereo is amazing and always up high.  With the tint and the way the car appears, when driving around Lake Tahoe, I often have heads turn and people wonder who I am.   Its got a great look and you will get lots of compliments.  A few little dings and scratches but they don't detract from the overall appearance.  Really nice interior and was well taken car of.

 

The vehicle will come with a great deal of service records and maintenance records and its the last year

of the prestigious Flagship 560SEL.  Much of the work was performed by Three Points Star Motors that specializes in Mercedes Bens and BMWs etc. They do excellent work.

The Mercedes-Benz W126 is a series of flagship vehicles manufactured by German automotive marque Mercedes-Benz. Premiering in September 1979 as the successor to the earlier W116 line, the W126 was the second generation of the Mercedes-Benz flagship to officially bear the S-Class name referring to Sonderklasse or "special class." The W126 was initially offered in straight-6, V8, and turbo diesel sedan models. In September 1981, 2-door coup'e versions of the W126 were introduced. Compared to its predecessor, the W126 was more aerodynamic, fuel efficient, capacious, and powerful. The W126 S-Class debuted a new Mercedes-Benz design style which was subsequently used on other vehicles in the company's lineup. The W126 line also introduced many Mercedes-Benz safety innovations, including the first airbag supplemental restraint systems, seatbelt pretensioners, and traction control.

The W126 had a twelve-year production run between 1979 and 1991, the longest of any S-Class generation since the flagship models were first built in the mid-1950s.

After six years of development, the W126 was formally introduced at the Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung (International Motor Show, or IAA) in Frankfurt on September 1979. The initial lineup featured seven models in standard (SE, SD) and long (SEL, SDL) wheelbase sedan body styles: the 280 SE/SEL, 380 SE/SEL, 500 SE/SEL and 300 SD. Technically, the long-wheelbase (SEL) variants were codenamed V126, but this was not popularly known. In 1981, the coup'e version (SEC) of the W126 S-Class premiered at the IAA with the 500 SEC model. In 1981, Wheels Magazine selected the W126 model 380 SE as its Car of the Year.

Four years after the introduction of the fuel-efficiency "Energy Program," the model range had been reworked completely. In September 1985, again at the IAA in Frankfurt, the reworked model range was reintroduced. Apart from visual changes to the bumpers, side covers and alloys, the changes made to the available collection of engine variants was most visible. Two newly constructed 6-cylinder engines and new 4.2 and 5.6 litre V8's were added, and other engines were further upgraded.

The W126 generation was replaced by the W140 in 1991, although a satellite factory in South Africa is known to have continued production until 1994. The different body styles of the W126 S-Class achieved a combined sales total of 892,123 units (818,063 sedans and 74,060 coup'es), making the W126 the most popular S-Class ever produced.
