This 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC is said to have been purchased new by the late owner’s brother-in-law before ownership was transferred in 2007, and it now shows under 29k miles. The car is finished in black over beige upholstery and is powered by a 5.5-liter M117 V8 linked with a four-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes a sunroof, headlight wipers, fog lights, power-adjustable side mirrors, a self-leveling rear suspension, and 15″ Gullideckel wheels along with cruise control, heated and power-adjustable front seats, and dual front airbags. This C126 560SEC is now offered by the seller on behalf of the late owner’s estate with a clean Carfax report and a clean Ohio title.
The car is finished in Black (040) with gray lower cladding and contrasting pinstripes. Exterior features include a power-operated glass sunroof, headlight wipers, a power-telescoping antenna, and bright window and bumper trim.
The 15″ Gullideckel alloy wheels are mounted with 205/65 Pirelli tires. The car is equipped with a self-leveling rear suspension, and braking is handled by power-assisted four-wheel discs with ABS. There are imperfections on the wheels.
The cabin features heated power-adjustable front seats upholstered in beige upholstery along with a color-coordinated center console, door panels, and carpets. Amenities include cruise control, dual front airbags, and rear headrests. The stereo does not work, and the seller notes that the air conditioning system needs to be recharged. Some of the wood trim is cracked.
The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 170-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline as well as an analog clock and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and instant fuel economy. The six-digit odometer shows 29k miles, approximately 13k of which were added under current ownership.
The 5.5-liter M117 V8 was factory equipped with Bosch KE-Jetronic fuel injection and was rated at 238 horsepower and 287 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential.
The Carfax report is free of accidents or other reported damage.
The vehicle is being offered by the seller on behalf of an estate. The seller and the executor of the estate will handle the post-auction transaction.
