Classic Car Overview
For sale is my 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL, finished in Anthracite Grey with a luxurious Palomino leather interior. This rare, final-year W126 model features the dependable M103 6-cylinder engine and an extended long-wheelbase design, making it a standout among classic Mercedes sedans. With fewer of these long-wheelbase models produced compared to the 300 SE, its a unique and elegant find.
Carefully Maintained and Ready to Drive
I've owned this car as its second owner and have used it as a reliable daily driver. While its not perfect, it's in very nice condition for its age and has been consistently maintained and cared for.
Extensive Recent Maintenance and Thoughtful Upgrades
To ensure the car performs at its best, I've invested approximately $5,500 in recent maintenance performed by a Mercedes-Benz specialist. Heres a summary of the work done:
- New exhaust system
- Brake master cylinder
- Belt tensioner, pulley, and belt
- Tie rods
- AAA battery
- Spark plugs, vacuum lines, brakes, tires, rotors, and bearings
- Distributor cap, ignition rotor, and hoses for the speed regulator
- Overload protection relay
- Newer chrome grille and hood ornament.
- The car also has a fresh oil change, serviced with Mobile 1 full synthetic oil and Liqui Moly Cera Tec for enhanced engine protection.
The A/C has been converted to the modern R134 refrigerant system, ensuring dependable cooling. It comes with new Goodyear tires, as well as a set of new Blizzak snow tires, making it ready for all-season driving.
Original Features and Modern Updates
This 300 SEL retains many of its original items, including the books, keys, a still-sealed tool kit, and the factory first aid kit. To enhance its appearance and functionality, Ive made a few minor updates, such as freshly powder-coated rims and all-new LED exterior lighting. The sunroof works perfectly, and all glass, including the headlights, is clear and crack-free.
An Honest Note for Enthusiasts
While this car isn't entirely original and has a few imperfections, such as the rear windows not going down, it remains a dependable, safe, and comfortable vehicle. It turns heads wherever it goes and consistently receives compliments for its timeless style. I feel confident driving it daily, even with my kids onboard, which speaks to the reliability and care this car has received.
As with any classic car, it may require ongoing care, but the major maintenance has already been addressed. Unlike many older cars that are neglected or poorly maintained, this 300 SEL has been lovingly cared for and is ready to drive. Any additional fixes can be done at your convenience.
Why Choose This Mercedes-Benz?
If youre looking for a classic car that combines timeless style, thoughtful updates, and reliable performance, this W126 is an excellent choice. At this price, I believe its one of the best examples on the market.
