This Mercedes 400 SE (W 140) is a collector's dream

This 1990s Mercedes 400 SE promises ultimate luxury at a surprisingly low price. It's currently listed for sale on the used car exchange at!

Nearly 300 hp and the characteristic V8 sound in the last true land yacht with the three-pointed star on the bonnet: this Mercedes 400 SE, for sale in the German town of Ronnenberg (located near Hanover), is an offer that will make classic car fans turn on the lights. The 1992 Benz, with 114,089 kilometres on the odometer, according to the seller, has no rust at all – and is now selling for the handsome sum of 16,900 euros. Does that sound good to you? Let's take a closer look at the machine!

The W140 is still considered the epitome of classic Mercedes. Under the hood of the 400 SE is a 4.2-liter V8 engine with 286 hp, combined with an automatic transmission and classic rear-wheel drive. This luxury sedan is designed for relaxed driving and does not have a sporty character - just as one would expect from an S-Class of this era.

The car on offer is in elegant Nautical Blue metallic with suede in the interior and fine wood trim. Electric seats, automatic air conditioning, heated seats, Becker radio, alarm system: the list of extras reflects the typical luxury class set of extras for the early 1990s.

Important for collectors is that the offered car has spent its entire life in Germany. The Mercedes has not been hit, and old TÜV inspection reports confirm the mileage. The TÜV sticker is valid until December 2027.

Luxury V8-Limousine from a Family Heirloom

What is particularly exciting is that the car is a family heirloom and in very good overall condition – the seller describes it as “dream condition”. Rust-free W140s are hard to come by. Before the car is handed over, a free pre-delivery service is even offered.

Conclusion

This Mercedes 400 is a car for classic Mercedes connoisseurs. If you've ever wanted to drive an S-Class like the ones that are no longer produced, this is a great opportunity!
