Vehicle Description
1998 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, S420! I have had this car since early
2020. I am the second owner. The Previous owner was based out of
Illinois and passed the car down within his family until I acquired
it. The car is a pleasure to drive and is in exceptional condition
for its age. I have a small obsession with these old Mercedes and
have owned several. This is, (in my opinion), is the best of the
original GERMAN made MB cars. These cars have all of the cool
options that made MB a true luxury brand in its time. No comparison
with the new cars. The car has many new parts and has been fully
serviced. It has New A/C (works excellent even in scorching heat)
has new brakes new fluids, new filters. The car starts, runs, and
drives EXCELLENT. It's very quiet, very smooth. The interior is in
very nice condition, all leather and carpets are in great shape.
The car does have the double pane glass that sound proofs the
interior. Has power doors, power seats power windows power
everything. The car has a clean body, nothing unexpected from a
well maintained 25 year old garaged car. There is no rust issues,
and has normal wear and tear. It does not get driven in poor
weather, it does not see snow. Tires are fairly new, plenty of
life. The suspension is tight! The car does NOT have air suspension
so no need to worry. The lights are all fully functional. 100% of
the electronics and all of the power options are functional! The
car is not perfect, it does have flaws, light scratches as
expected. I had the passenger and drivers fender repainted and
minor dings repaired. It has a crack in the driver door mirror. The
sun roof sliding cover could use a light repair as its missing the
headliner there (the roof headliner is excellent, Just the sunroof
sliding door) Since I've had the car (which i drive periodically)
ive replaced Brakes, tires, A/C was serviced this summer and blows
cold, has new fluids, new plugs, new filters, new oils. New coolant
and brake flush was performed.
