Pedigree Motorcars is proud to offer this magnificent 1977 Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL for sale. For details contact Ken Baker via phone or text at 561-866-1601.
For nearly a decade the W116 body Mercedes was hailed as the most advanced, finest driving, and safest luxury sedan on the market. Even by today's advanced standards, these are magnificent driving cars. They are a reliable, spacious, and wonderful high-speed road cars. These cars were offered with many different engine choices and body styles. Offered in a short or long wheelbase, this 450 SEL is the most desirable of all. It has the 4.5 L V-8 engine and the longer wheelbase for a very spacious rear seat.
Regarded as the most advanced and well engineered car of its time, these timeless classics are still impressive drivers today. This example is one of the most impressive ones we have ever driven. We strongly encourage potential buyers to personally inspect this Mercedes to understand how magnificent this car is.
This highly original Black with Bamboo leather 450SEL is truly impressive. The body has no rust on it whatsoever, the paint gleams, as does all of the chrome. Inside, this car is truly a time capsule. Everything inside of this car is impressive. The Bamboo leather shows virtually no wear. The seats are still supportive and firm. There is no cracking on the dash or door panels. The wood veneer is all magnificent with no cracks or fading. Even the carpeting still looks as impressive as it did 40 years ago. When we first saw this car, we were truly amazed by its condition.
