1987 Mercedes-Benz S-Class SEL review from North America
"This is a car in a class by it's self and is truly a great auto"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electric window problem 150.00.
Muffler problem 180.00.
Replacing radio because it cannot hear thunder. 200.00.
General comments?
This is my second Benz and I really love the ride and style of these fine cars. This car is CLASS and there is no doubt about that.
The cabin is so quite and the ride is smooth as glass.
The motor is very strong and you have to watch out or it can get away from you.

| 1987 - S-Class 420 SEL 4.2 Liter V 8 I am in awe of it. I doubt that there are very many 1987 420 SEL's in better condition |
