Almost Perfect
Rob,03/21/2010
1990 Mercedes-Benz 560-Class 560SEL 4dr Sedan
This is the 4th SEL I've owned, unfortunately the first three have had tragic deaths, 1 stolen, 1 totaled while parked and 1 caught fire after AC maintenance. I will always go back to these cars, amazing handling for the size, power to spare and has a classic style that will never look old. I've tried to replace this car with other new cars only to be disappointed. Out of the 4 I've … spent a total of $20k to purchase and maintain but have driven over 300k miles with never a problem. Here I am 8 years later and still can't believe how amazing these cars are.

Classic Styling
automaniac9,03/04/2014
1990 Mercedes-Benz 560-Class 560SEL 4dr Sedan
Driving this car makes you feel like no one can touch you. The car has great power for the day and can handle pretty well too. The fact that mine is black over black just adds to its presence. For being so heavy, its massive 5.6 liter has enough torque to move this beast faster than you could think was possible. The interior is classic Mercedes; wood throughout, nice leather seats with … all the electric options, and easy to understand buttons, make it a great place to sit. This being a 1990, it has a more advanced sound system than years prior, and it sounds quite good considering its now 24 years old. The biggest aspect of the car that lets it down, is of course the gas mileage.

Mercedes 560SEC - Last Of The Big Ones
soldbydon,01/24/2004
1991 Mercedes-Benz 560-Class 560SEC 2dr Coupe
An eBay purchase, this car was
repainted following purchase due to sun
damage but otherwise needed very
little. I own 6 classic Mercedes and
this is the grand pappy of them all,
with silky-smoooth ride and exceptional
quietness. This model sold for $82,900
new, and can be purchased typically for
$10K to $20K depending on condition.
Probably the closest thing to
a … "lifetime" car you can buy, with much
simpler electronics and lower costs of
ownership than the successor 140 series
cars. As far as what to watch out for,
these cars had some corrosion problems
in the rear window areas and sometimes
the glass would delaminate; used glass
is about $400.

1991 Mercedes-Benz 560-Class 560SEL 4dr Sedan
The best of 3 SEL's we have owned over the last 20 years.
Repairs have been regular oil and filter changes , brakes, and one problem window over the last four years.
Our mechanic says ignore the power steering pump leak and live with it.
Fuel mileage is the best we have had. 15 around town and 20 to 22 on longer trips.
We run regular fuel but we don't hot rod it.
I have always purchased … around 100K and run them to 200K plus then basically give them away.
Pay extra for good tires. It is worth it in ride and handling.
Look for one that is really clean and cared for. It is worth the search.
Have fun and enjoy it.

Should I lease or buy a 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560-Class?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
