Following the debut of the 1970s generation W116. Mercedes-Benz
began plans for the next-generation S-Class model in October 1973.
Codenamed 'project W126. the project had specific goals: an
improved ride. better handling and improved fuel efficiency. These
improvements were aimed at helping retain the 'S-Class' market
leadership as the world's best-selling prestige luxury saloon.
Following the 1970s oil crisis. Mercedes-Benz had made fuel
efficiency an especially pertinent goal named 'Energy Program'. br/>even in the large V8 engine versions of the S-Class. In terms of
the body design. the objective of the W126 design team was to
produce a car that was sleeker and more aerodynamic than the
previous model. The application of lighter materials and alloys
combined with thorough wind tunnel testing to reduce overall drag
meant the car consumed about 10% less fuel than its predecessor.
After six years of development. the W126 was formally introduced at
the Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung (International Motor Show)
in Frankfurt on September 1979 with the initial line-up featuring
seven models.

An excellent 1985 W126 380SE with full service history. this
example has covered just 63. 57 miles from new and has been owned
by the current vendor since 1993. Finished in silver with cloth
trim. supplied with the V5C registration document. a valid MoT test
certificate until August 2015 and a service book pack coupled with
good history file and old MoT test certificates dating back to 1991
to verify the mileage along with original owner's handbooks. the
condition of this 380SE has to be seen.

Guide price £2. 00 - £4. 00
