The 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Sedan is from the second generation of the legendary Mercedes-Benz S-Class line. The W126 is so far the most successful and the longest in production generation of the iconic S-Class. The W126 project was led by Mercedes-Benz Chief designer Bruno Sacco who aimed to make the new S-Class more aerodynamic, efficient and retain the unmistakable design elements that makes the S-Class an S-Class. The weight was significantly cut down by extensive use of high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) sheets and polyurethane deformable material for the bumpers and side claddings. Lighter alloy material was used for the heavily revised 5.6-liter M117 V8 engine that this Mercedes-Benz 560SEL houses. It is also the biggest engine that you could have had with a W126 S-Class. Our featured car has a total of 80,000 miles on the odometer. We’re told this particular model has been treated to new parts and has had the front end completely rebuilt as reported by the current owner.
Our featured 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL is dressed in an elegant shade of silver, with the car being freshly painted in August 2024 and upgraded with aftermarket Mercedes-Benz wheels and fitted new tires. The shape of the W126 S-Class was mostly the result of the wind tunnel that resulted in the beautifully reshaped front end and bumper of this 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Sedan we see today. Even the wipers are hidden underneath the hood for smoother air flow. Inside, the luxurious cabin comes upholstered in dark blue with wood integrated into the door panels, dash and center console. Our featured car has been upgraded with an aftermarket audio player with Bluetooth capability and Apple CarPlay. Of course, you get heated rear seats and more lavish amenities, as this was once a top of the line Mercedes-Benz.
Under the hood of this 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL is a potent 5547cc M117 V8 engine with mechanical continuous multi-point injection with Bosch KE-Jetronic electronic control. Mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission, this 1991 German sedan made 275 bhp and 430 Nm of torque, as reported when new. The current owner reports that this Mercedes-Benz has received a new fuel pump, a new radiator, a new air intake system, and a new fuel distributor.

What was the finest full-size luxury car that one could buy in the '80s? Many would say that it was the Mercedes-Benz W126 S-Class. Produced between 1979 and 1991 as a sedan and wagon, the W126 is considered to be the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz in the 20th century. It’s no surprise that many discerning petrolheads would relish the chance to own and drive a W126 – because it’s a car that’s meant to be driven and enjoyed, not secreted away in a climate-controlled storage facility. So, we’re proud to make one lucky petrolhead’s dream come true, with this 96,000-mile 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL up for sale right now. Act fast, because W126s don’t hang around, and particularly not when they’re in great condition like this one.

Anyone who’s owned a Mercedes-Benz S-Class or its predecessors brand-new at the time will likely have been very impressed with their new purchase. While the S-Class badge came into play in 1972, the model’s heritage extends way back to 1954’s Ponton. Representing the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz’ engineering and technology, new features typically debut on an S-Class before filtering down the range as time goes by. That’s why this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL is still a technical tour de force, and comes with many features that you’d recognize as being on 2022-model cars too. Bearing just 78,600 original miles, you also receive a car cover, and the original manual plus tools and jack with the purchase. And you know what? Save weekend drives, this is a car you could daily very nicely, even in 2022!
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class nameplate is most popularly seen upon the company’s four-door midsize luxury sedan offering, and has been the case for decades. But did you know that Mercedes-Benz also offers coupe and convertible choices? These have sometimes been marketed under different model designations. The first of the E-Class badged coupes and convertibles came about in 2010, with the C207 and A207. These took over from the Mercedes-Benz CLK. The series got a facelift for the 2013 model year, and this 2014 Mercedes-Benz E550 Convertible is a prime example of a post-facelift car. With 41,000 miles and all servicing up to date, it’s a fine boulevard cruiser and can easily serve as your daily driver, too.

Excalibur…that’s not an automotive brand that many have heard of. Things get even more confusing when you set eyes upon this machine via our photos. The bottom half of it looks like something from the 1920s. The top half is decidedly more modern, and the title says it’s a 1989 Excalibur Series V Sedan. Well, you see, the Excalibur is a car that is designed to look like a 1920s automobile but based on something decidedly more modern. This Milwaukee-based company has been at it from the 1960s, right up until 1990. Although as you can imagine, they didn’t exactly sell massive volumes. Production volumes are estimated at over 3,500, but actual figures are hard to come by. So, if you want an American curio to grace your driveway, this 1989 Excalibur Series V Sedan with its 17,600 miles is a great candidate. We’re told that the car has documented mileage and includes its owner's manual.

You often hear the phrase “They don’t make ‘em like they used to” and that couldn’t be more true when said about new cars. This 1985 Mercedes-Benz SD with just 50,000 miles on the odometer is the perfect way to showcase that saying. No complicated electronics and sensors here, just an honest car that is built to a standard that is nonexistent nowadays. The S Class name has been around since 1972 with several models to choose from in that 52-year timeline, and this classic W126 is on the more desirable side.
