1987 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 420SEL for sale
Current customer rating: (198 votes ) based onLast year I replaced the engine with a newly rebuilt motor. along with water pump belts. radiator etc. so while the odometer shows around 150k. the engine only has about 30k on it (i have receipts for the installation of the new engine. ) I added high end slotted disc brakes and pads. I have all the manuals and information kits from the Hollywood showroom where she was purchased. She also has nice Michelin tires. The only thing that does not work is the antenna. and the tach sometimes doesn't register (its an easy fix and affects nothing - after all she's and automatic - so it's just for show). As I said above. I would expect to spend around $500 to fix the small things and get her "shiney". If you wanted to go further. I would trade out the wheels.
I have a clean title and she was just inspected and registered last week so she's good until May 2017.
Keep in min this is a 30 year old car. She can be a wee bit finicky. When you hit the gas she waits for a nanosecond then roars. with almost head snapping power. but treat her gently. This is not a car you want to take on long summer road trips across Texas. rather you want to keep her covered (I have a new car cover I am throwing in) and when its time to go to out for a night in style you bring her out. When people ask you about her - you have a story. I get nods and smiles and asked about her all the time - as will you. Just say "I call her The Shirley. "
