Overview of 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL For Sale by Owner

What was the finest full-size luxury car that one could buy in the '80s? Many would say that it was the Mercedes-Benz W126 S-Class. Produced between 1979 and 1991 as a sedan and wagon, the W126 is considered to be the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz in the 20th century. It’s no surprise that many discerning petrolheads would relish the chance to own and drive a W126 – because it’s a car that’s meant to be driven and enjoyed, not secreted away in a climate-controlled storage facility. So, we’re proud to make one lucky petrolhead’s dream come true, with this 96,000-mile 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL up for sale right now. Act fast, because W126s don’t hang around, and particularly not when they’re in great condition like this one.

Exterior and Interior

The iconic black and silver two-tone exterior of this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL is peak Eighties Mercedes-Benz. The car’s long and low looks are the result of the genius of Bruno Sacco. If you don’t know who that is, you’d better do some reading, as this is one epic bloke who directed Mercedes-Benz’ styling direction for decades. That’s why this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL looks timeless, rolling on its period-correct wheels, sporting all the right chrome bits, and of course, that imposing chrome front grille with the Mercedes-Benz star atop it is hard to miss. The luxurious interior of this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL features leather seating for five adults in a shade of gray that’s unobtrusive and welcoming at the same time. The car has walnut wood interior trim, a Becker Grand Prix radio cassette player, power windows, power mirrors, and a power radio antenna. There’s also climate control and cruise control. There’s a spacious trunk behind the passenger cabin as well, highlighting this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL’s role as a luxury grand tourer, capable of travelling long distances for hours and hours while carrying enough luggage to ensure that no-one has to compromise.

Engine

As a long-distance cruiser, the 5.6L fuel-injected V8 that propels this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL is a marvel of engineering. It puts out over 240 horsepower to the rear wheels through a 4G-TRONIC 4-speed automatic gearbox. All-round disc brakes are also present, for steady stopping power.

This 2019 Mercedes-AMG G 63 takes the already imposing G-Wagen formula and pushes it further with an inspired replica/tribute appearance.
