I drove these big 1980's Benzes when I did valet parking. They were built as solid as a tank! This was a car from a bygone era when Mercedes put function and quality over gimmicks.
I crashed one of these new at 140mph on the highway. A semi truck pulled out in front of us. It was the same year and I was 17. All 4 tires were off the wheels and the engine was still running. Not a scratch on us.
@@obriantomlinson2776 I don't appreciate being called a liar Brian. It's the honest to god truth. Look up the top speed of that car and you'll see it's 150mph
@@stevesmith3033 the car’s top speed has nothing to do with the fact that you are a liar. Worse, if telling the truth, you are an imbecile of the first magnitude and a criminal who should be imprisoned.
Another blast from the past! This time around, it's with an '88 Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL. You ladies were right, this is a European limousine because executives rode in the back. Superb with a capital "S", just like you, Haley and Leyton!
This car will outlast all of us! That quality will never be replicated that’s why it in near new condition w126 Mercedes’ the best ever. Great video girls
I've been watching your videos for a few years now and I will say that of all the hosts I'm impressed with the two of you and your knowledge of the cars and presentation. Keep up the good work!
My favorite part always is when HaLEYton get out of the car, walk toward the camera, put their hands on hips and proclaim 2 is better than 1...the sight of these drop-dead gorgeous BEAUTIES knocks me over every time! And their automotive knowledge continues to grow!
I had a 280SE years ago with a four speed standard and mechanical fuel injection on the model 110 engine, straight six shocks, dual exhaust. Great solid car.
Agree. I had a 380 SE (but a little older (about 1985/86 model, the one with the stripes in the plastic parts at the bottom of the doors), and whilst perhaps a little low on power with the 3.8 it still did 190 kp/h here in Germany, and indeed it felt like you were driving a tough lump of rubber, just stiff and tight all over. NOTHING made a noise, no creaking plastic or anything. Astonishing. It was my company car at the time!!!!!! Heavy, tough and yet still fairly agile. Great times.
The W126 is one of the safest cars ever made. Das Panzer mobile. one thing that I've noticed is.....nobody talks about how beautiful this car is. Manly looking, beautiful interior, strong engines and easy to work on.
See this is what I miss you both were so good together the way you both conversed together about each car and all the cool features and it was True two is better than one, it was like you both were Best Friends.
Little correction, the Mercedes W126 V8 have a all been automatic, only the V6 (S260-320) have been available as manual, and they have not been sold officially in the US, only some private imports made it to the US. The W126, 560 SE/SEL was also available with pneumatic/air suspension, but this car does it despite it´s good equipment not have.
260, 280, 300 were not V6 but straight line. The W 126 did not come as S320. That was later model W140. In 2010 they started a new line of V6 engines, but in 2016 they went back to the line 6 again. This is because the 6 line could be produced same way as the 4 cilinders, while the V6 was more akin to the v8, that were fased out more and more because of downsizing.
@@paulmetdebbie447 You are right, it was no W126 S320 it was the S420 with the small V8 (successor of the S380). The V6 M 112 motor came in the 1990´s but only made it into the E class.

Nice Car.. - Shoes are terrific ladies.. I like this new platform! Technical question; what is the color name of the soft-pink nail polish on the one that says "Ummm-hmm" like my gir-fren ShartQueefa says all the time? Another one: Is there enough room upfront of the W126 to say put one's feet up on the dash?
Top Speed with 238 HP is not 155 mph. 155 or 250 km/h is the topspeed of the ECE Version sold in Europe with 299 PS or 220 kW. 228 km/h (142 mph) was the top speed with 178 kW/242 PS (=238 HP).
Pretty sure those “door vents.” Are actually part of the vacuum system that control the door locks. Should be able to control all of the locks simply by pulling up or pushing down the lock on the driver’s door… 🇺🇸🇺🇸🤙🤙 Great video and impressive knowledge of the vehicle in general.
I've had over 20 cars and a vw bus back in the day including the porsche 944 I've seen alot for great experience..my next future car is a 2021-23 BMW M3 CS
I have a 1983 Mercedes 240d sometimes as a daily driver boy I have heads turns including the Manager at the Ferrari Dealership taking a cigarette break and its garage kept as a holy grail as a gift 🎁 from my co worker. I used to have a 1988 260 E Class it was my dad's great value let's be honest in my state some people don't know how to drive I'd survived a crashed for a higher value its not about the money its the car I missed for safety so the replacement is currently as a first Legendary before the e class is the Mercedes 240D Diesel.. as a 1983 early 80s model I don't see much in these days...
Actually the "tank" is the W140. However, the W126 is a very strong car, it saved my life 15 years ago. 70mph crash, never touched the brakes. The airbag worked perfectly and all the doors could open and close like nothing happened. Personally, I prefer driving the W126 more than the 140 and certainly far better than the W220.
The problem with all LHD cars offered on the internet, is that for us in Australia, we have to have them meet Australian design rules! OK, I know that it is absurd especially when dealing with Quality cars like a Benz or other european cars. That means that they will also have to be converted to RHD.
A five speed manual gearbox never was a standard for the 560. For a 280 or a 380 there was the standard for a manual transmission, but never for the 500 or 560.
Is it just me or do i feel like they just want me to fork over money to them for this old bucket so they buy a new gucci or louie bag while driving their tesla.
the 560 is a legend but I prefer 500 engine is much stable and compression is lower, body is lighter fuel efficiency is better, 560 all fame that ( mid 80's) time it could hit 250 km easily and due higher weight it feel like a train on highway.
