The car has a clean CARFAX report and its full service history.
Purchased on 12/8/1990 at 'McDonald Motor Company', the
Mercedes-benz dealership of Ventura, CA where the car was initally
serviced whilst under warranty and in later years the car was
serviced at 'Stepke Imports', a renown independent Mercedes shop of
Los Angeles, CA with records from 6,854 miles in 1992 and with its
most recent service there at 61,973 miles (Less than 122 miles
ago).This was the last year of the legendary W126 series and the
second generation of the Mercedes-Benz flagship series officially
known as the 'S' class meaning 'Special Class' and had a suggested
retail price of over $82K in 1991. The W126 S-class was a champion
in the luxury car market and dominated worldwide sales during its
twelve year production run from 1979-91 and by the end of its run
was renown internationally as being the world's best selling
prestige luxury car! It was awarded the US Highway Loss Data
Institute's 'Safest Passenger Car of the Year Award' in both 1988
amp; 1989! It was replaced by the W140 in 1991.This is the last and
therefore obviously most desirable and refined year of this iconic
motorcar! The car boasted both driver and passenger side airbags,
crumple zones, cruise control, 8-way power dual stage heated front
memory seats, automatic climate control, sunroof and anti-lock
brakes! It also boasted new drivetrain technologies such as a four
speed automatic transmission with a topographical sensor that
monitored the vehicles position whether on an incline or a decline
along with the gas pedal position which produced an extraordinary
capacity to hold back the acceleration when coasting downhill and
to maintain the 'S' class position without using the brake pedal
after coming to a complete stop on an incline! It also featured a
'limp home mode' in case of electronic failure and was programmed
to start in second gear in order to always allow for smooth
wheelspin free launches!Without a doubt, this is one of the finest
classic luxury cars built by Mercedes-Benz and certainly you will
look long and hard to find a finer example of this last and
therefore most desirable year model for the W126 S class series and
an especially desirable 1991 560SEC coupe with only one careful
family owner since new and boasting all original documentation and
service records and only 62K original miles in this most striking
and desirable of color combinations available anywhere else!
