  • In this video I review a 1980s icon, the W126 S-class. This is a 420 SEL from 1989, which is the long wheelbase version (V126) and is for sale at Unique Motor Garage in Petersham.

    This was my dream car when I was a kid. Grew up in Hong Kong in the 80s and these were very popular. They were a status symbol.
    I hope to own one some day.

      I was in my teens in the 80s and wanted a 500 SEC from the same line!

    Had one of these years ago: magnificent ! Had that effortless "glide" feeling you only get with very big, superbly built cars. Seamless gearshifts, silent on tickover. Quite nippy for a tank-sized car.

    Wonderful condition for its age and mileage. Someone takes pride it in. Never heard they distinction between a w126 and a v126.

    With governments forcing us into electric cars and new cars having far too much crap on them a car like this, in this condition, would make an excellent long term investment in motoring.

      I suppose some people r loyal to certain brands though. I just judge a car as it is, not the logo

    i own a 420SE (short wheelbase). it's the dreamcar from my childhood. this one is a really beautiful example in it's original style and given how much km it has driven. Also interesting Australia, like US market, didn't get the performance upgrade from around 87/88.

    Lovely but can’t help think the refurbed rims look like they’ve been sprayed with silver paint from a car diy shop. Wrong shade of silver completely.
    Beautiful car, no doubt

    I have driven my 91 560 SEC foe 24 years now, it is a true dream to drive. I take it to many local car shows and it is creating a lot of interest lately. One gentleman approached me and said, "I'm from Germany and only the High Rollers and the Pimps drove these cars!" The car is well maintained and has had no major issues.
