1979 S-Class - Barons, Tuesday 13th June 2017 For Sale by Auction

Released In 1972, Mercedes-Benz introduced the W116 line, the first to be officially called the S-Class. Produced from 1972 through 1980, the series featured a four-wheel independent suspension and disc brakes. This was a ground-breaking car for Mercedes-Benz, and for the first time and the overall design incorporated numerous safety features developed from the safety research vehicles in the mid-to-late 1960's.

This is a very original and incredibly rare base spec S-Class Mercedes in Thistle Green and lovely period check interior. Recently discovered in a West London residential garage, this wonderful car has been lightly recommissioned by and given a 12 month MOT with no advisories.

The eye-catching interior is in amazing condition, a real testament to Mercedes build quality of the time and 70's fashion. Outside the classic lines are free of major dents or scrapes. The car is in super rare "poverty spec" with manual windows, but still has a luxury feeling with deep pile carpets, wood veneer and half leather seats. Runs and drives great.

The vendor advises that the car runs and drives great, engine pulls strong, smooth gear changes and stops quickly in a straight line. The car has good tyres and brakes, excellent chrome, and sunroof. Don't miss this one of kind Mercedes.
