Erittäin hyvin säilynyt, vähän ajettu pitkän akselivälin V8-moottorinen S-Mersu. Alkujaan Sveitsistä paluukyydissä tullut, ja nyt minulla 13 vuotta. Varmaan Euroopan vähiten kilometrejä nielleiden joukossa. Viimeisen 13 vuoden aikana noin 2tkm, nyt mittarissa 136 tkm. Auto on ollut tallin komistuksena, mutta tilat alkavat ylitäyttyä, ja kalustoa on vähennettävä. Sisustassa ei kulumaa, upeat vaaleat nahkapenkit ovat kuin uudet ja matto uusittu. Moottori on "elvytetty" ruiskutusjärjestelmän uusilla osilla. Ruoste ei vaivaa; Joku voisi jopa luulla tuoteväärennökseksi, mutta aito Mersu tämä on, ja juuri nämä Ässät tarjoavat sitä loistoauton tunnelmaa. Tätä yksilöä ei ole räpelletty. Huomioitavaa: Ilmastointilaite vaatii huoltoa/täyttöä (ei puhalla tällä hetkellä kylmää). Toisaalta kattoluukun ansiosta ilmastoinnille ei ole Suomen kesässä huutavaa tarvetta. Mittariston valaistuksessa on osittaista pimeyttä (tyypillinen W116-mallin poltin/potentiometrivika). Tästä luotettavalla 4.5-litraisella V8-moottorilla ja pitkällä SEL-korilla varustettu edustusklassikko valmiina suoraan ajoon tai harrastajalle, joka arvostaa pitkää omistushistoriaa ja hyvää huolenpitoa.
