Reviewed a 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Sedan on Dec 27, 2014

I like the more aggressive stand than the stock Saloon, and the engine is very strong making the vehicle look and handle more like a muscle car. The all around tinted windows and high polished aluminum wheels also contribute to the sporty look. Yet inside the vehicle looks very plush with the upgraded Palomino leader seats, which look great and are extremely comfortable. I fell in love with my 560SEL when I first saw it at my mechanic's garage and bought it even though it needed many repairs and maintenance. Although many of the parts are relatively expensive, I saved a lot of money by doing the mechanical work by myself. Additionally, there are plenty of parts available at junkyards and salvage dealerships. Right now the car performs and handles outstandingly; It is an excellent commuter car in the day and a party cruiser at night. I feel proud to own this car specially when I'm driving on the highway and the very expensive cars of the day pass me by, not for lack of power, on the contrary because I know what the vehicle is capable of doing. I so much enjoy just cruising in style knowing that I didn't have to pay the expensive costs of owning a new car.
