W140 my son swapped for his Supra

Has 5ltr all bells and whistles. Massive car - would be 25% bigger than my w126!
Great to drive and has a very unique look that turns heads. Exhaust note is cool and it rumbles along. No one messes with you!

As you can see previous owner had it lowered to accentuate the look - it does NOT ride near as well as the 126



s class

Looks absolutely bad-ass awesome.  Love it.

My dream car!!!!! love them, but I couldn't afford the maintenance bills so will look on in envy. Princess Dianna sure picked a classy car to have a prang in. Apparently these were designed to stand up to getting rear ended at 80kph from a simular vehicle!

isn't it interesting how small the 126 looks compared to modern cars. even small hatches have more height and width than a 126. in contrast, the 140! if only Diana had been wearing a seatbelt, like her bodyguard, she would likely have been ok.

Anyone seen that video of a w140 turning a holden barina/ opel corsa into a soccer ball? Yep  Cars keep growing with the generations!

If Diana had been wearing a seat belt, they would have still killed her off.

Who said she wasn't wearing one anyways?

Diana wasn't wearing a belt and suffered her fate.  Her body guard was and survived in the front seat from memory.  i don't understand people who get in cars and don't put belts on, you still seem to see this in american movies and TV shows!

Absolutely gangsta!

I'm loving the black rims!

Fantastic engine, too.

Re; Diana, the driver was intoxicated too, if I remember correctly.
