1 of 50
Vehicle Description 1990 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL What is the difference between S, SE and SEL on the older S Classes? S stands for S Class, (obviously), the E stands for the German word for Fuel Injection which is Einspritzung in German and finally the L stands for the Long Wheelbase version of the S Class.
For consignment a 1 family owned car, long wheelbase saloon sedan in the form of a 1990 560SEL 4-door.
A collectors dream, with this always garaged kept and faithfully serviced 10 condition wonderful example.
Nary a tear in the leather, and the exterior is nice and pristine.
Exterior An all original car with that thick German steel and innovative construction we have what was the ultimate sedan of the time.
All bathed in Arctic White with no rust, nicely minded gaps, and straight steel, a shiny grille and surround, wipers for the head lighting, and a second dark gray tone for the bumpers and rockers along with the lower parts of the car.
This paint on the bumpers and rockers is showing some age and discoloration but remains nice.
On top is a sunroof, which leads rearward to a long trunk deck and room for all the passenger's belongings.
On the back are the ribbed tail lighting and MB has a method to their madness with this design- it's self-cleaning! Glass and trimmings surrounding it are all very good and nice and shiny.
From the tri-pointed star atop the front cowl to the large badge on the center of the trunk, this is truly a beautifully preserved original example.
Interior Molded Palomino plastic and vinyl combines with some diagonally stitched leather inserts to create the elegant door panels.
A German walnut burl veneer is nicely lacquered and houses the seat adjuster and door handle.
Moving to the passenger compartment, we see 2 pristine heated Palomino leather buckets with smooth bolsters and stitched tuck and roll inserts, along with a convenient headrest.
This is all original leather and has no tears or cracks, just the right amount of wear from age and careful use.
In back is a passenger bench stretching from side to side, and a thickly padded armrest can be folded down between the buckets.
The center console in tan has a burl insert for the shifter lever housing surround.
Various control toggles are located here and within the riser also in burl, that houses the AM/FM/Cassette stereo and climate control buttons and wheels.
Above the dash is a black vinyl panel, while down below is clean tan and in-between is a burl accenting strip running from door to door.
The instrument cluster is nice and clean, and mileage shows as 104,864 original documented miles.
Above, the headliner is a nice tight tan and it has wonderful thick pile carpeting.
Drivetrain Under the hood stuffed into the clean and slightly patina engine bay is a 5.
6 liter SOHC V8.
It is fed by EFI and produces a nice 238hp.
A 4-speed automatic transmission is on back, and the rear axle weighs in at a gas saving 2.
47 ratio.
Undercarriage Some road dirt on top of formerly undercoated stamped steel is noted underneath.
All structurally solid with slight surface rust, a solid exhaust and mufflers, and plenty of ground effects smooth panels.
Independent coil springs provide the suspension for all 4 corners, and power disc brakes are also showing up on all 4's.
All nicely preserved with some slight corrosion on aluminum parts beneath.
Drive-Ability The 8 candles came right to life upon the turn of the key, and I settled into the leather seats, tuned the FM band and off to the test track I went.
Here the car accelerated nicely for a big car and handled as expected.
Bias free braking on the panic stop test, and performance was splendid.
All functions were working during my drive, and I have to admit, all this luxury spoiled me.
A clean well cared for 1 family owned MB 560SEL long wheelbase cruiser.
The paint is good, and the interior is sparkling clean and with all of its service records you can't go wrong.
