Wow, that is a pretty impressive 0-100 kmh performance for a 23 year old car with a naturally-aspirated V8. The speedometer accuracy is impressive too. It's only the wind noise that might be caused by worn door or window seals that lets it down slightly. Very impressive car indeed.
And when you think about all the hate and unlove w220 is regarded ...ok, maybe interior quality and rust protection is not the best, but mechanically this was and is a proper Benz! Thank you guys for giving us such a delight!
@@bogdansim3460 most peeps that hate on w220 are also because of the electrical glitches you get randomly. But yes I agree on everything said. I like the design and shape of this gen too.
I remember reading when I was a kid around when this car was released how the S class was piloting tech that will be standard in 20 years. Id say thats pretty accurate. The dash feels modern.
a few years ago I had a w220 s500 4 matic. Engine, transmission and driving comfort - the highest level. The only problem was the suspension (it liked to play tricks) and metal sheets. Contrary to appearances, it is not a very expensive car to maintain
Mercedes claims that this car can achieve a claimed top speed to 250 kmh and Max managed to achieve a verified GPS top speed of 250 kmh which is a terrific achievement for a car which is 23 years old.
I had an opportunity to buy one of these a few months ago for 1500$ CAD. It was a friend's father's car that sat for many years and had a faulty airmatic module. I would have loved to take it on if I had time/funds to get her going, unfortunately it got sent for scrap as they were moving their business and needed it gone. Cool to see some older and less powerful stuff once in a while. You gotta appreciate the speeds it can hit with under 300hp
Remembering driving a s430 as student chauffeur. The client choose the s430 over the s500 because the latter still hat the old '500' engine. I remember it as a very silent and fast vehicle. King of the road.
That's BS. There was a significant rust problem and poor interior materials but engine and transmission were bulletproof. I've also never occured any electrical problems or with airmatic. It's just a solid, reliable and very comfy car to drive. I'm very doubtful a W223 will last over 20 years.
When merc wasnt shitty. This is what people still think they get meanwhile newer mercs if not top of the line arent better if not worse than standard cars

The good old days when S430 actually meant 4.3L
jajajajjaja very good!!!!!now its IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW
*Damn Daniel
Now S63 means 4.0
@@su-57_ And C63 = 2.0 with 4 cylinders 🤣 what has the world come to
Upgrade 840hp ?
Even after 23 years it’s quicker than the factory claim of 7,3s 0-100km/h
Amazing!👌🏼

@Mirnes Čovrk I think I know since I have owned Mercedes since 1986 until now. How about you?
We'll all be dead and this engine is still going to kick ass
I remember reading when I was a kid around when this car was released how the S class was piloting tech that will be standard in 20 years. Id say thats pretty accurate. The dash feels modern.
The speedo is also very accurate. Only a few km/h difference. That's impressive after all these years.
Amazing acceleration for the s430.. a true (via GPS) 6 anything second to 0-100 is fast on the street ! Great video
Hopefully you do more videos with cars like this in the future.
Plenty of performance and comfort considering how reliable these things are with the M113 and 722.6. A keeper
Bargain of the century. You guys got one hell of a car. Luxury barge with a V8 doesn’t get any better than that
Love that steering wheel that is moving soooo, smoothly omg, that looks amazing!! 👍

I like the W220 a lot. Absolute bargain if you are able to find a nice one.

I am very well aware of That😅

agreed !
Do you said reliability?😅

That's one precise speedometer!
Mercedes claims that this car can achieve a claimed top speed to 250 kmh and Max managed to achieve a verified GPS top speed of 250 kmh which is a terrific achievement for a car which is 23 years old.
I believe it's electronically limited and could technically do slightly more
Considering 280 AMT N/A engine in a 2 Ton Car. Very very impressive
This engine in clk is killer
The CLK550 even crazier with the 7 speed
@@RegionalRadioShackManager Yes 5.5 388 version with headers, intake and Remap make about 420-430hp

Great to see the older cars as well. Interesting to see how things have changed over time.
Satisfying Video for me who owns a stock W220 S500 without any modifications.
Today I saw an advertisement for this Mercedes in Poland. Almost 400,000 km mileage :)

430 is not an M113 engine?

@@andersnielsen6044 ...so what is He talking about?
@@jareknowak8712 Ask him.
Excellent performance for a 23-year old car. Sounds nice, too.
but not for a 23 year old driver !!!!
I owned one but had problems with electonics.
Good story ❤️
Love this car
The most notorious thing is in the first minute: The silence!
I like how quiet this car is
You made good deal on this car, guys.
The engine sounds really refined, 4.3L is quite powerful tho
it is impressive not so much that it is 23 years old but how a car with 390,000 km still does so well!
It is a Mercedes?
Please do a bmw x5 e53 3.0d facelift
This will go past any modern bmw in top speed😂
Please do w204 C180 Kompresser next
Great bang for the buck! Are you sure it's not a downbadged S500?😀✌
Nah....I've got an S430 and it sounds the same. The 5L M113 is a tad more grunty

Good performance for an old luxury sedan. ride looks smooth but you have clean roads too
For a saloon car from 1999 that's pretty decent.
Verry sick car for the money!!
الحمدلله الحمدلله كنت اشوفة واحلم بها وصعدها وصار اسبوع عندي.
amazing car is the most favorite of the bodies. I would prefer the 12 cylinder version S65 AMG
Smooth !
Nice car 👍
back when silent v8s where silent because the manufacturer wantet it to be silent and not the EU... :(
Ehh tbf it actually sounds good even with the mufflers on. It's a lux sedan, not sportscar.
The W220 is probably the most unreliable S-class generation that there was.
yes 🤣🤣
That's BS. There was a significant rust problem and poor interior materials but engine and transmission were bulletproof. I've also never occured any electrical problems or with airmatic. It's just a solid, reliable and very comfy car to drive. I'm very doubtful a W223 will last over 20 years.
Nice sound! What application do you use to time the 0-100?
Not much of a sound. Dragy app.

Покажи, S 65 SL65 или СL65 спасибо.
Way quicker than I thought
Ahhh the work car officially gets reviewed!
I think it deserves a supercharger between the V.
İsn't that the same engine architecture as the 55 amg? (M113 i think)

Try E430 hehe lighter more nimble more sporty elegant
I wanna see the 2003 Mercedes S55 AMG on the channel.
Papa mobile
Wow
Sweet car, I wonder much time you could shave off with the 7G tranny instead, great pulls but definitely shows potential
What is that warning light on the instrument panel for?
I have a 2003 s430. I get a lot of envious looks when I drive it.
Which application are u using to measure speed ?
Those were times when the cars were builded as cars, not now they build them like toasters, electric is everywhere also in Greta brain :)
W220 best.
This car is so quiet. Wow.
What app are you using to test the speed?
Have those 4.3 got variable intake runners? Its slow to pick up until 3000.
They don't even have variable valve timing.
The suspension of this car was and will be a nightmare for the wallet of any owner .
Any merc in this era with ABC hydraulic suspension :P
@@aaryeshg.6526 Correct. I confirm that as an owner of w221&w216
E poi ci sono i golf gti che segnano a tachimetro 265km/h che che effettivi sono 250km/h..... Grande Mercedes
5:14 What was that noise? That didn't sound good...
Some resonance somewhere. In mic or interior.
