1988 MERCEDES BENZ 500S LIMOUSINE W126 Lot n° 31

Serial number WDB1260371A206257 Bodywork «L’ETOILE Only 5 in the world 87 000 km Nice condition French title Buying a Mercedes Benz S Class is already a luxury that very few people can enjoy. It is one of the best cars on the market, always technologically advanced, very comfortable, with powerful and reliable engines that will take the passenger (and his driver) to the end of the world. The W126 generation unveiled in the twilight of the 1970s is no exception to this rule and is one of the S-Class that introduces the most novelties, particularly in terms of road safety with the appearance of the airbag and a drastic improvement in road holding. The W126 is available in several body lengths, reaching a height of just over 5m, but the model we are presenting is based on a 500 SEL version with a 5.0L V8 engine and automatic gearbox. This duo allows a great flexibility in the driving, the automatic gearbox is very well staged, the soundproofing of the car makes you forget that an imposing engine is hidden under the front bonnet: everything is done for calm. Made by the Belgian coachbuilder Ronny Coach Building Company (under the L’ETOILE brand), our model was extended to a four-door limousine. Very well equipped, its interior is worthy of a real living room with its saloon where two pairs of armchairs face each other with plenty of leg room. A bar and a fridge are placed in one of the armrests, while opposite, a television and its VHS player are in perfect working order. A driver’s partition with a transparent window or a thick leather curtain can be controlled from the dashboard and the rear passengers can also enjoy a sunroof and electric windows. With its original mechanics in good working order and low mileage, this limousine is a perfect purchase for those who want to stand out and drive in comfort, luxury and opulence.
