Never get tired of old Mercedes-Benz. The W140 500SEL. A trip to a local car shop.


     Expensive to run for some. Maintenance is high due to the age of this car. Fuel consumption is the main concern due to the increasing fuel prices. But when maintained properly, it runs like a well-oiled machine. This is the flagship car for the Mercedes-Benz, the S-Class. This is the 500SEL, which is an older model compared to the newer, rebadged S500. This is the W140 model. The S-Class is known for its comfortable ride and the car of choice for the wealthy. This particular model has a 5.0L V8 engine with 480NM of torque. With a big and heavy body like an S-Class, you need all the power you can have. Even with such heavy body, it still manage to get from 0-60mph in around 6.7 seconds. Back in the 90's this car have quite the impressive technologies and  gadgets to amaze you. 


     
     Some more pictures of the 500SEL luxurious interior. Mercedes-Benz never fails to make the best interiors with lasting design, luxury and quality that will last for years to come.
