Used 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC for sale in Houston, Texas
Gateway Classic Cars of Houston is very pleased to present this well preserved 1986 Mercedes Benz 560SEC. Although the first W116 S-Class in the 1970s established Mercedes-Benz as a global leader in safety engineering and technical prowess for sedans, it was the next W126 S-Class, beginning in 1979, that saw this model become a top-tier luxury automobile, its true flagship, and a lasting symbol of affluence throughout the 1980s. This is what we are presenting to you today This Anthracite Gray over Palomino tan leather beauty is sure to turn some heads!In general, the 5.5L 8-cyl. 5549cc/238hp MFI powerplants for the Mercedes W126 models were quite bulletproof and would last well past 200,000 with no issues. This particular example is CarFax verified with 168,282 miles. The well cared & maintained engines, such as this one, will almost run forever. This 560 comes with a thick 3-ring binder full of maintenance receipts, and it just received a completly updated A/C upgrade and conversion to R134a in July, 2022. In addition, the recent replacement of the timing chain, radiator hoses & the new Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injectors show just how lovingly this example of German engineering has been cared for. The Mercedes Benz powerplants would often outlive the transmissions, but in this case, the 4-speed automatic transmission has already been completely rebuilt as well, so that will not be an issue in the years to come. It is also riding on a good-looking set of Michelins wrapping some sweet looking 17 AMG wheels, completing the overall look of this impressive sport coupe. The vehicle comes equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission, sunroof, cruise control, air conditioning w/ climate control, power windows, power steering, heated power seats, sunroof, 4-wheel disc brakes, headlight wipers & a Blaupunkt head unit (the original radio is included) just to name a few of the options.
