What’s special about this listing
1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC (W126) – Collector-Grade Example
Offered here is a well-preserved 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC, an icon of the W126 S-Class coupe line.
Ownership & Care: Single long-term ownership since 2001, always garaged. Nearly 100% original, with the exception of the wheels, which were present at time of purchase.
Condition: The body is straight and honest, with only minor scratches on the driver’s rear quarter panel. Interior presents beautifully with no rips, cuts, or tears. All systems function properly with the exception of the factory radio. Original owner’s manuals and valet key are included.
Mechanical Updates: Preventive maintenance completed, including timing chain, upper chain guides, and chain tensioner (documentation available). The car runs and drives as a 560SEC should—smooth, confident, and powerful.
Provenance: This car carries a history of being marketed by Hatch Motors, a respected Mercedes-Benz specialist known for high-quality examples.
Collector Appeal: This 560SEC represents an excellent opportunity for the discerning enthusiast seeking a largely unmolested, well-kept example. It belongs on the short list of serious collectors searching for a proper W126 coupe rather than a worn daily driver.
Serious inquiries only. Additional photos and records available upon request.
