1983 Mercedes-Benz 500 SEL V126 (Automatic / 4 Gears) RWD [1980-1985]

Summary

Experts rate the 500 SEL as the "king of the road" of its period, where the combination of the long chassis with the V8 engine offers a highly refined and powerful driving experience. According to ProfessCars™ estimates, the vehicle exhibits impressive performance with a 0-100 km/h acceleration of only 7.7 seconds, a figure that challenged many sports cars of that time. Although the combined consumption of 14.9 L/100km is high, it reflects the status and weight of a royal limousine. The starting price in 1980 for this model was around 61,600 Deutsche Mark (approx. €31,500). Today, the 500 SEL is regarded as an automotive icon that retains its value thanks to immortal engineering.
