Beautifully Restored 1989 Mercedes Benz 560sel

Let's talk about sexy. This beautifully restored autobahn burner is the epitome of pure, studly-smooth movement. Big, impressive and road confident, when you see it on the streets you want to be closer.

So, in a proper garage, this stud has been poured over. All new hoses, lines, seals and belts. From alignment to brakes, to tune ups and suspension, this 560 is probably one of the more perfect and true daily drivers a guy could want. Another 30-40 hours and it would be show ready. It is that beautiful and elegant.

Step on the gas and merge onto any highway, and you'll know instantly why the speed-hungry engineers at Mercedes Benz decided this W126 would have a speedometer which peaks at a beastly160 mph. It corners and handles as it should in day-to-day traffic.

Own it, drive it and live the thrill of gliding down the road in what your mechanic calls a "real car." The doors shut with the force of a bank vault. It roars to life with a flick of the key. The car moves like a warrior god amongst lesser mortals.

Remarkable piece of engineering. Great daily driver. Please read through the specs and details below to learn more, and contact us for a test drive. We could charge admission, but for you, hey the trip's on us.
