Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to introduce
the classic 1989 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL finished in Black Pearl
Metallic. Mercedes has long been considered the benchmark other
automobile manufacturers measure themselves against, and Mercedes
engineering has pioneered many of the safety and performance
features we all take for granted today. In many cases, those
advancements were first brought to market through an S Class
platform. This sophisticated vehicle featured gray lower cladding
and features a power-operated sunroof, fog lights, a power antenna,
dual exhaust outlets, and bright window and bumper trim. Under the
hood, you'll find a powerful 4.2-liter M116 V8 paired with a
four-speed automatic transmission, ensuring a comfortable and
enjoyable driving experience. The interior features seating
surfaces upholstered in black leather complemented by Zebrano wood
trim on the dash, center console, center stack, and doors.
Appointments include power-adjustable front seats, an upgraded
Becker AM/FM/cassette stereo with Bluetooth, automatic climate
control updated to R134, cruise control, and front seat-position
memory settings. The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel
frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline
as well as an analog clock and gauges for coolant temperature, oil
pressure, fuel level, and instant fuel economy. The six-digit
odometer shows just under 30k Carfax reported miles (showing a
clerical error in 1986). Big, comfortable, luxurious, and
intentionally overengineered, this Mercedes 420 SEL is quite the
find, and one you'll enjoy for miles and miles to come.
