1983 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 280SE W126 European Model
1983 Mercedes-Benz 280SE W126 EURO Spec Model – ONE Family Owned!!!!
In September 1979, the new-generation S-Class was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. While its predecessor still sported expansive chrome ornamentation, the 126 model series strode onto the automotive stage in a decidedly less ostentatious manner.
The body design underscored the engineers‘ efforts to significantly improve the car’s efficiency. Lower weight, improved drag, and fuel-efficient engines made it possible to reduce fuel consumption by up to 10% compared to the predecessor model. This Mercedes-Benz 280 SE is from the first series and is powered by the six-cylinder engine m110 with two overhead camshafts and a mechanical injection system. The engine is sporty in its characteristics and harmonizes perfectly with the 4-speed manual transmission.
The W126 S-Class was a champion in the luxury car market, dominating worldwide sales during its production run. As the most successful production S-Class in history, it has secured a place as one of the most well-remembered luxury vehicles – described by some as a "classic." Its twelve-year production run was longer than any S-Class before or since, and following the debut of the W140 S-Class in 1991, the additional two years of production in South Africa was a testament to the W126's popularity in the export market!!
