Exterior
A California, Rust Free, VGood Running, �140 Platform’ with approx 158K Highway miles.
ORIGINAL COST WAS OVER $95,000 !
Recently powerfully Road Tested to 90mph.
IF YOU’VE NEVER DRIVEN ONE ?
The Handsome Luxury �140 platform’ V8 (& V12), is an unforgettably SMOOTH Autobahn high speed Machine - a “tour de force” that set new standards for Rolls & BMW (Word is Mercedes lost $5,000 on every one sold 1992 to 1999). After year 2000, the S500/600s became smaller/ less rear compartment roomy & overall cost cheapened.
The brilliant �140 Platform’, in later years was resurrected, further stretched - and it became Mercedes-Benz Grand, Ultra LUXURY, $200K “The Maybach”.
