A beautiful example of a modern Mercedes-Benz classic, presenting very well for its age and remaining in fully stock, original factory specification. The car drives exceptionally well, with a smooth and powerful V8 engine and a seamless 5G-Tronic transmission. It starts easily, idles beautifully and delivers the effortless performance and refinement that Mercedes-Benz was famous for during this era.
