"Timeless classic in good collector's condition. Runs very well in engine, gearbox and brakes. Complete and nice body and interior. Nothing serious to complain about"

Description

Very well-groomed Swedish-sold S-Class coupe (SEC). This Mercedes 420 SEC was bought new as an executive car by the shipping company Globtic AB, in Gothenburg. Original instruction book and warranty certificate issued in the first owner's name included. Complete ownership history from the National Archives is included. After reviewing the accompanying ownership history, we have come to the conclusion that the car had 5 actual owners. Between 1987 and 2013, it was the same owner family. Since 2016, it has been on display as a show car in a large collection of fine cars. The meter reading is 131310 km, which we consider to be correct given the fine condition, without significant signs of wear. Equipped with jack, original tools and spare wheels.

In 2013, the well-known workshop, MB-Oldtimer in Sundbyberg, was reviewed with a total service and overhaul of the car. The air-conditioning system was also renovated. Receipts for the service that cost just over SEK 20,000 are included. Equipped with a Blaupunkt Freiburg car stereo from the early 1990s (with key-card).

    Very nice interior and difficult to find any wear on seats. Probably had a seat covers. Only a few small spots on the left side at the back can be seen. (See picture). Hardwood inlays on the dashboard. Equipped with airbag, something unusual, which was only found in exclusive cars in 1986. Nice headliner. The sunroof runs nice and quietly.

    Well-functioning car. Fun to drive. Arouses desire. The car went so well that the test team took an extra turn with it after the photo shoot.

Facts about the model

Den nya S-klassen med internbeteckningen W126 introducerades hösten 1979. Tyngdpunkten låg nu på lågt luftmotstånd och lägre bränsleförbrukning än hos företrädarna. Tekniskt var bilen en vidareutveckling av W116. På V8-versionerna göts även motorblocken i aluminium, till skillnad från W116 som hade gjutjärnsblock. Till 1986 uppdaterades bilarna med uppfräschad kaross och modifierade motorer. Bland annat infördes de nya sexorna från W124:an. Utrustningslistan är längre än hos W116, låsningsfria bromsar kunde fås från början, och krockkudde från hösten 1981. Coupé-versionen C126 presenterades på Frankfurt-salongen 1981. Mercedes 420 SEC tillverkades i 3600 exemplar mellan 1985 och 1991.
