1989 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 560SEC review from UK and Ireland
"A high performance bargain if you can keep it in petrol"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
A huge, wonderful, luxurious and stunning looking car. Most of the time it silently flows through traffic like a limo - but if you put your foot on the floor it turns into a sports car of incredible handling given its size, and 5.6 litres of engine hurtles you forward, passing anything in its way.
