The W140 S-Class that was introduced in 1991 was the last traditional Mercedes to come from Sindelfingen and built seemingly without regard for cost.
This earlier model is considered to be the best, between 1992-1994 which have no reported wiring loom issues.
Mechanically the car is sound and performs wonderfully on the road. Any interested party can feel secure in the knowledge that this car has been well maintained and should they wish for a specialist opinion, they can reach out to the Mercedes-Benz specialist that maintains the vehicle.
The history file contains the vehicle service booklet with a total of 21 service stamps most of them from Mercedes Benz amongst other specialist garages. M119 5. 0 V8 engine produces astonishing 320BHP through the bullet proof 4 speed transmission.
All electric switches work but there are a few minor faults which need to be addressed
Driver lumbar support works sometimes, central locking does not work, locks manually.
ABS warning light comes on periodically have had this checked and will need a steering angle sensor so the cruise control will not engage unless the sensor is replaced (the speedo needle has now stopped too), I've not replaced due to less usage, this doesn't affect the drive or stopping.
There is no rust underneath and the car is super solid all jacking points in perfect order, there is some surface corrosion on 2 wings and bit of bubbling, overall the car is in a great condition for the age.
Some of the specs are only on these earlier models include,
Electronic rear view mirror
Electronic rear head control
Two-tone exterior paint
Available for viewing and any inspection.
