Mercedes 560SEL Immaculate

1991 Mercedes-Benz 500-Series 560SEL Description

Here is a beautiful, well-maintained (always by Mercedes mechanics) Mercedes 560 SEL, the flagship Benz. The car has 134,000 miles on it. The original clock did not work so I replaced the entire instrument panel. The best and closest to my odometer reading was about 13,500 miles below the original.

1991 was the last year for this model and body type. It is still the gold standard for Mercedes. The car has been garage kept and it shows - the paint has a glass-like finish to it, the dash and seats have no cracks, the instrument dials are bright orange and the rear taillights are not yellowed.

Originally purchased by an olderrestaurateur,near Atlanta, who drove it sparingly, the carwas then bought by the family of a Mercedes dealer in Florida where it stayed until I purchased it in 2012 from the widow of its 80 year-old caretaker. If you check the record, you will see that it was titled several times in the same location as it got passed to family members. I have all the books that came with the car and some service records.

MECHANICAL: The 5.6L power plant is smooth and powerful. Oil pressure is great and it burns no oil. Shifts are precise. - It tracks straight down the road and cruises quietly and effortlessly at 75mph.

- Steering is solid with very little to no play. The wood/leather steering wheel is from a Mercedes once owned by the Jordanian Royal family.

- AC blows cold

INTERIOR:

Buyer pays shipping from Snellville, Georgia or you are welcome to pick it up and drive it home. It will go cross country without a problem.

If you pay for it, you are welcome to have a Mercedes mechanic inspect the vehicle for you. I can recommend two in Snellville, if you would like.

ISSUES:

- The sunroof needs new “L” brackets and the latch for the hood release does not extend all the way. Otherwise, this car is in near new condition.
