C1977 MERCEDES-BENZ 450 SEL 6,9L
To be re-started Sold without registration Mechanical excess in the service of Germanic measure, such as the Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL 6.9L could be described. A car of the great people at the end of the 1970's, the W116 was reserved for an elite, it was the car to have to travel in comfort, safety and elegance at inconceivable speeds allowed by the absence of radars at that time. Thin and discreet in its design, the 450 SEL appeared in 1975 was nevertheless a real limousine by its measurements: nearly 5 meters long and 1.87 meters wide, all contained in a mass of 2 tons! Above all, it was an ode to mechanics with a 6.9 L V8 engine with fuel injection, developing 286 horsepower from 4,250 rpm for a torque of 560 Nm at 3,000 rpm, all of which could take it to 100 kilometers per hour in less than 8 seconds and up to 220 kilometers per hour in top speed! Technologically too, the 450 SEL was equipped with air suspension, power steering, air conditioning, electric windows, optional ABS and a three-speed automatic transmission. Knowing this, its price of nearly 200,000 francs at the time is not surprising, as is its low production, as only 7,380 examples were produced. This Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL 6,9L is to be put back on the road. It was stored in a safe place. It will be sold without registration.
