Mercedes-Benz w140 1995

Allmän beskrivning : An exemplary W140 S-Class, with just 21k miles from new.

MODEL HISTORY

The Mercedes W140 series made its public debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1991, with the first examples rolling off the production line in April 1991. It was the first of the 'next generation' of Mercedes-Benz models to feature the company's new design theme. This design was later adopted in 1993 for use on the face-lifted W124, as well as the new C-Class.
 

As well as a new design, the W140 introduced innovations such as double-pane window glazing, power-assisted closing for doors and trunk lid, and electric windows that lowered back down upon encountering an obstruction.
 

The W140 series is often known as the last Mercedes to be 'over-engineered', a Mercedes trait that was costing the company in product delays and over budgeting. The vehicle is believed to have cost Mercedes-Benz over 500 million pounds to develop.
 

In June 1993, as part of the new corporate naming campaign, the model range was renamed. This resulted in all SE and SEL models now being re-designated as 'S', being followed by the numbering. Mercedes-Benz built 432,732 examples of the W140 series.

EXTERIOR

This handsome S-class is presented with a stylish two-tone paint scheme of (199) Blue black with Alto grey, undoubtedly one of the smartest Mercedes colour combinations of this era. The paintwork remains largely original and in excellent order throughout. Looking down both sides of the car, all panels are straight and true with even panel gaps to be found. Both front and rear bumpers have avoided any damage and all light clusters are crack free.

INTERIOR

The interior space of the S-class is ample to say the least. Legroom is copious and the seats are notably large and supportive, providing a feeling of luxury and comfort. The leather feels soft and supple throughout with no damage to report. The vast dashboard is free from any unsightly cracks, as is the centre console wood trim, a notorious weak spot if over exposed to sunlight.
 

All of the switchgear is in excellent order and works exactly as it should. The carpet is kept fresh throughout by a full set of genuine Mercedes over-mats that show no signs of wear whatsoever, really completing the interior.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION

Under the large bonnet is an orderly engine bay in fine fettle. At the heart of this S-class is the 3.2-litre inline 6 powerplant, mated to a 4-speed automatic gearbox producing returning a modest 23 mpg.
 

Most recently the Mercedes received a service inspection in October 2015 at 19k miles. The underside of the vehicle is exceptional, on close inspection it is in excellent rust free condition (photos available on request).

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES

The S-class sits on its original 16-inch Mercedes alloys. The wheels have a polished finish and present well, although would need refurbishment to be perfect. They are shod in quality Bridgestone tyres.
