1991 Mercedes-Benz S600 Sedan VIN. WDB1400561A027141 5,987cc DOHC V12 Engine Bosch LH-Jetronic Fuel Injection 389bhp at 5,200rpm 4-Speed Automatic Transmission 4-Wheel Independent Suspension 4-Wheel Power-Assisted Hydraulic Disc Brakes *Attractive Blue Black over black cabin *The ultimate Q-Ship *AMG Monobloc II Wheels *One of the finest luxury sedans of its era *Requires recommissioning THE MERCEDES-BENZ W140 S-CLASS With each successive generation of Mercedes-Benz cars, the Stuttgart manufacturer maintains its tradition of offering the very finest automobiles across a wide range of classes. Debuted at the Geneva Salon in March of 1991, the new W140-series was developed at a cost of over $1 billion and was unquestionably the most advanced motorcar on the planet when it came out. Offered in the US with a choice of a 3.2-liter V6, 4.2-liter V8, 5.0-liter V8 and a range topping 6.0-liter V12, standard equipment on these supremely well-appointed automobiles included a four-speed automatic transmission, traction control, double-paned glass, electronic stability control, and pneumatically self-closing doors. The S500 and S600 were electronically limited to a maximum speed of 155mph, surely fast enough for most mortals. In 1993 Mercedes-Benz changed the model designations of the 500SEL/600SEL to S500/S600. Often considered the last of the 'over-engineered' Mercedes, the W140-series is still believed by many to be the ultimate Q-Ship. THE CAR OFFERED This S600 Sedan from the Barry Taylor Estate is a 1991 European market model, finished in metallic Blue Black (199M) over charcoal cladding and a black cabin. A straight and tidy example of a W140, it rides on desirable AMG Monobloc II alloy wheels which suit the substantive body design remarkably well. It also wears a rarely seen period Heckblende tail panel, typically made by Hella. Some clear coat failure and surface corrosion is noted in the paint, as are some minor scuffs and dings. A Carfax report is included, however, details of its history are limited. It has been in long-term storage while in Mr. Taylor's collection, and it has not been started or mechanically evaluated by Bonhams. Recommissioning will be required prior to use. The W140 has endured as the last of the vault-like Mercedes-Benz automobiles, when quality outweighed cutting-edge technology. Thie V12 sedan has ample potential to return to its position as king of the 1990s luxury sedans. Footnotes: Note, due to California emissions laws, this vehicle may only be sold to an out-of-state resident for use outside the state of California or to a licensed automotive dealer. Lot to be sold without reserve. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com For further information about this lot please visit the lot listing
