The origins of this Mercedes-Benz W116 go back to its delivery by Daimler-Benz-A.G. in Wiesbaden, Germany, on 21 June 1979. After spending years in Wiesbaden, the car was imported to Switzerland in 2003. The car now comes from 'Maybach Haus A.G.' in Appenzell, Switzerland: a prestigious collection of rare and original Maybach and Mercedes-Benz models. This says something about this example: this is a beautifully preserved example that excels in originality. The car is rust-free and in very nice condition. The paintwork is free of scratches and dents and has recently been professionally polished. The original wheels in colour of the paintwork are distinctive. In the interior, you imagine yourself in luxury and comfort: the robust and in new condition MB-Tex seats spring wonderfully soft and from here you can enjoy the beautiful interior details such as inlaid wood. There is plenty of space and luxury in the rear too. How could it be otherwise: the S-Class is Mercedes' top model. The interior is also well-preserved and smoke-free. The robust 2.8-litre 6-cylinder engine is mated to a 4-speed manual transmission. Standard equipment included a windscreen made of laminated glass, interior-adjustable door mirrors, height-adjustable driver's seat, rear armrest and power steering. Distinctive options of this example are the Becker radio, antenna, air conditioning and right exterior mirror. In short: a stately and comfortable limousine-sedan that excels in originality and is an addition to any collection or collection. Mercedes' slogan comes into its own here: "Das Beste oder Nichts".


General information about the Mercedes-Benz S-Class W116
The S-Class is Mercedes-Benz's flagship model and has long been known for its technical and safety innovations and exceptional comfort that few other brands can match. Built from 1972 to 1980, the W116 generation excelled in configuration: more than 1,000 combinations were possible in specification, colour, trim and equipment. In no other car were so many combinations possible. The design is relatively long, wide and low with lots of chrome details. W116 was the first car in the world available with ABS (from 1978) and was the only Mercedes to be named 'Car of the Year' in 1974. According to the jury, the car possessed 'excellent and balanced qualities of safety, driving comfort and performance'.
