Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to introduce the classic 1989 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL finished in Black Pearl Metallic. Mercedes has long been considered the benchmark other automobile manufacturers measure themselves against, and Mercedes engineering has pioneered many of the safety and performance features we all take for granted today. In many cases, those advancements were first brought to market through an S Class platform. This sophisticated vehicle featured gray lower cladding and features a power-operated sunroof, fog lights, a power antenna, dual exhaust outlets, and bright window and bumper trim. Under the hood, you'll find a powerful 4.2-liter M116 V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable driving experience. The interior features seating surfaces upholstered in black leather complemented by Zebrano wood trim on the dash, center console, center stack, and doors. Appointments include power-adjustable front seats, an upgraded Becker AM/FM/cassette stereo with Bluetooth, automatic climate control updated to R134, cruise control, and front seat-position memory settings. The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-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 just under 30k Carfax reported miles (showing a clerical error in 1986). Big, comfortable, luxurious, and intentionally overengineered, this Mercedes 420 SEL is quite the find, and one you'll enjoy for miles and miles to come.
