If you’re looking for one of the very best W126’s, you’ve just found it. This 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL is in the perfect colour combination of “Blue / Black Metallic” (DB199) with grey leather and walnut trim. From a mechanical and cosmetic perspective this car really is exceptional and very difficult to find in such good condition.
It was ordered new in 1992 to a very high specification for the Director of one of the UK’s biggest Mercedes dealerships. It had two further UK owners and was imported to Ireland in 2013 with just 65,000 miles. It has remained with the same Irish owner since 2013 and has always been taxed, tested and correctly maintained. Irish maintenance invoices are on file totalling €9,000 to include front & rear brake callipers discs and pads, suspension top arms and major service items. The car has covered just 79,000 miles and had a major service just 1,000 miles ago.
The exterior of the vehicle is virtually unmarked, from the paint, trim, glass and bumpers to the alloy wheels, it’s all really good. The interior shows very little sign of its age and all accessories work as they should from the ice cold air conditioning to the cruise control.
This particular W126 is one that you just jump into and enjoy.
