This is a true time warp condition car only 15,283 kms from new and one owner for most of its life. The W126 380 SEL limousine was a quality piece of kit. Bursting with technology and luxury appointments.

The all alloy V8 engine is coupled to a 4 speed automatic gearbox. The four wheel disc brakes have ABS. The suspension is self levelling. Extras include power windows, sunroof, front and rear seat adjustment, climate control and air conditioning. The colour combination of Milan Brown Metallic and stunning Bamboo Velour really set the scene.

These W126 models feel like they have been carved from a single block of granite and is testament to Mercedes-Benz quality of old.
