Vehicle description

Model history:

Compared to its predecessor, everything was new on the W116: the special class had become the S-Class. Mercedes-Benz had managed to create a modern design without being unfaithful to itself. The new look was due, among other things, to the aerodynamics – as was the new arrangement of the windshield wipers. From then on, these were to become just as typical of the entire "new" Mercedes family as the ribbed taillights. The new safety features included the foldable exterior mirrors, higher rollover resistance and the collision-proof tank installed above the rear axle. The new front axle and the diagonal swing axle at the rear provided even more comfort and driving safety.

General information about the vehicle:

Now a Mercedes-Benz S-Class of the 116 series from the first registration in 1977 is for sale in this auction. According to the seller, this sedan with chassis number 11603212068275 is a German first registration, which has only 3 owners over the years and for which the so-called matching numbers are to be given. The Mercedes-Benz, which has already been restored, is already in possession of an H-registration and the 450 has a valid TÜV until May 2025. Due to the fact that, after consultation with the current owner, various documents such as the maintenance booklet, various invoices and receipts are available, the history of this W116 can be traced approximately.

Exterior paint/paint/body:

Visually, this W116 sedan presents itself in plain gray - a complete painting of the car took place at AMG in 2012, an accident-free is confirmed by the current owner. Modifications to the body deviating from the original condition are apparently not to be discovered and all chrome trim elements as well as other add-on parts in the area of the exterior are obviously in very good condition. The seller even speaks of a year-old car-like condition of this 450. For more details, please have a look at the other photos and videos.

Exterior rims/brakes/chassis:

According to the seller, new tires are mounted on classic Mercedes-Benz "baroque alloy wheels" - in the area of the brake system, the current owner of the W116 estimates the condition of the brakes at 50-70% of their new condition. According to him, there are no inconsistencies or gross damage to the chassis.

Interior:

In the interior, black leather seats can be seen, which are in a decent condition considering the vehicle age of this W116 of now almost 45 years and show no rough signs of wear. The interior is also in very good condition without any major signs of wear and tear - equipment features include a sunroof, power steering, central locking, power windows at the front and rear and heated seats. There is also a Blaupunkt cassette radio on board this Mercedes-Benz sedan. For a detailed overview of the interior, we refer to the other photos

Mileage:

According to the seller, this car is said to have covered about 173,000 kilometers since its first registration in 1977 until today. Various documents such as invoices and the maintenance booklet are available for the vehicle, and the operating instructions also exist. All indicators in the instrument cluster work perfectly.

Engine:

The 4.5-liter V8 engine of this W116 produces 218 hp - the individual gears are engaged via a 4-speed automatic transmission and final service work took place in September 2022 after consultation with the seller.

Subsoil:

The seller declares the state of preservation of the subfloor to be largely rust-free. For some, the S-Class is considered the epitome of the automobile - with the 116 series, Mercedes-Benz officially introduces the S-Class designation. This car released for auction here is a very cleanly preserved and extremely well-maintained W116, which convinces with its good optical and technical condition.

    In der Beschreibung wird ein 4-Gang-Automatik-Getriebe erwähnt. Das gab es im 450iger mE nicht. Oder wurde hier mal ein Austausch des serienmäßigen 3-Gang-Getriebes in ein 4-Gang vorgenommen? Wenn nein, sollte hier bitte eine Klarstellung erfolgen!

      Hallo, leider sind sehr wenig Bilder vom Innenraum vorhanden. Klima?

        mE keine Klima, da vor dem Kühler der Klimakompressor fehlt, zudem auch kein zweiter Regler (für die Kälte) unter dem für die Zuluft.
