Mercedes-Benz’ second-generation S-Class was styled by an in-house team led by Bruno Sacco and was lighter as well as more aerodynamic than the first. This 1991 Mercedes-Benz 420 SEL sedan embodies that spirit perfectly, in its beautiful and period black upper paintwork with gray lower quarters. It rolls on a set of classic Mercedes-Benz alloys that are wrapped in new tires, reported to have less only about 3,000 miles on them. The interior features black leather seats and a wood-trimmed dash and center console. The front seats are electrically adjusted with memory function as well. The car has air conditioning installed, which the seller reports to be ‘ice cold’, and there is a vent for the rear passengers too. A period-correct Becker radio is installed as well, as featured on Mercedes-Benz models of the eighties and nineties.
The W126 could be had with a variety of gasoline and diesel powerplants, and this 1991 Mercedes-Benz 420 SEL sedan is powered by the company’s 4.2L (256ci) M116 V8 with fuel injection. For 1991, it put out 221hp and 240lb.ft, and sent its drive to the rear wheels through a 4G-Tronic four-speed automatic. This was enough for a zero to sixty sprint of 8.5 seconds, and a top speed of 137mph when new. This car has received new fuel lines, brake hoses, brake pads, shock absorbers, stabilizers, mechanical steering parts, spark plugs and a new AC compressor.
