Choose a Mercedes-Benz S-Class from any generation since it appeared on the scene in 1972, and you’ll find a car that was the cutting edge of technology at the time it was introduced. With heritage spanning way back to 1954’s ‘Ponton’, the S-Class continues to represent the best that Mercedes-Benz’ boffins can muster. This 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL Sedan up for sale with us right now represents the later years of the sturdy 126-series. Being a long wheelbase variant as denoted by the L in its name, it’s a V126 chassis code. The current owner reports some recent maintenance, and we see that the odometer indicates 114,031 miles at the time of photographing this car for sale.
Built like a tank is one of the ways that the 126 series is widely described, and looking at the photos we’ve taken of this 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL Sedan, it’s not hard to see why. The current owner reports that the car’s been repainted, and it sits pretty on those iconic Eighties Mercedes-Benz alloy wheels which the current owner says are wearing brand new tires. The Mercedes-Benz Star is proudly displayed atop the front grille. Overall, the Bruno Sacco-penned design has aged very well, and you will certainly turn the heads of those who appreciate such cars as you drive by. The reportedly all original interior, including original dashboard, presents itself in tan with wood accents, and once again, you’re getting a decent helping of tech from the period. There’s a climate control system and the seller reports that the car is set up for air conditioning to be installed. Power windows, power mirrors, powered front seats, and a rear air vent for rear seat passengers are present too. The music options have been upgraded with a Sony head unit that supports CD playback and AUX input as well, and we see a CD changer installed in the trunk, although we’re unsure of its functionality.
This 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL Sedan doesn’t come with the largest engine of the range, setting instead for the 3.0L fuel injected in-line six, that puts out a respectable for the era 177hp and 188lb-ft to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. You won’t be screaming around and burning rubber in this car, but travelling in a smooth manner at respectable speeds is its forte.
