Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC C126 5.0 V8 Automatic – A classic waiting for a new owner

For sale: an extremely tidy and well-maintained Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC (C126) from 1990. This is one of Mercedes-Benz’s most iconic coupé models, and its appreciation among enthusiasts has been rising for some time.

The car has seen little use while in my ownership, and I simply no longer have the time for it. During the last MOT period it covered under 500 km, so it’s time to let the next enthusiast enjoy it.

Condition:

The car starts easily, runs smoothly, drives well and functions as it should. Any rust damage to the underside has been repaired correctly, and overall the car is very tidy for its age.

However, do remember this is a 36-year-old classic, so expect that it will not be perfect like a new car.

Equipment and features:

✅ 5.0-litre V8 engine
✅ Automatic gearbox
✅ Automatic climate control works
✅ Electric sunroof works
✅ Seatbelt pretensioners work
✅ Elegant C126 body style
✅ Well-preserved classic

Known faults

• The cable of the electric rear window blind lifting mechanism does not work. The motor, however, operates normally.

• The interior lining of the sunroof detaches slightly at one edge when opening.

  
  

Summary

A very striking and increasingly rare V8 coupé that offers the genuine feel of an early 1990s Mercedes-Benz. Suitable for both hobby use and collecting. The car is roadworthy, tidy and ready for its next owner’s summer outings.

Sold due to lack of time, not a forced sale.

Seller’s comment:
"This is one of the cars they no longer make. The sound of the door closing, the V8’s note and the C126’s lines impress every time. I now hope to find an owner who can enjoy it more than I can." 🚗✨
