Hi Rob,

It's a shame that you haven't had any bites, as the car is really nice. For a lot of people, the size of the car is an issue. Being a flat dwelling Londoner, I couldn't have a car that big - it would be a nightmare to get around the narrow streets and limited parking.

Best of luck with the sale.

Scott

Sorry you have not had any luck the car look very nice and the price does't look too far off the mark either

The problem is there are so many for sale. I picked a 1998 S420 LWB fully loaded with 80k on the clock for £6,500.
For the year/mileage i think it is overpriced.

Afraid so, have to agree the price looks steep and the mileage doesn't help. The W140's really need Parktronic also. Although it looks fantastic and is a lot of car for the money there really just are a lot of late model 97/98's with quite high specs at the moment for very sensible money.

lovely looking car, but I cant imagine your fuel bill, ouch!

97 P S500, 70K, Private, Good, £9950 (Parkers). For that mileage however good the car you've got to be looking optimistically at 3 grand less in asking price I'd say. Shame really, such a lot of car ... I knew a guy who couldn't bear to part with his and LPG converted it - new injection technology, none of that vapouriser and cutting into the air filter box bo***cks - it paid him cos he ran an airport taxi service and did 60K miles a year in it but at just over £2K for the conversion it would pay for itself sooner or later anyway, no?

S500 for sale

I just sold my S320 to a taxi driver in Wales. It was a 1996 and totally immacculate - see page two photographs for details! I got less than 4.5K for it so I would have a good think about slashing the price if you are serious about selling this side of Christmas.

agreed with all of the previous comments - There's a 97 P S500 with 80k on it sat on a local forecourt for 6k - absolutely immaculate,full history and all bells and whistles.

You need to drop the price or hope for a buyer who has no idea of current market prices

Hi dont mean to sound offensive but I have to agree and would say it prob worth only £4000 to maybe £4500 max if in great shape(history and everything working most important!!).

 

[robgosty]

Now vastly reduced

 

[KLP 92]

I bought a 1999 S600 fully loaded with electric heated rear seats + satnav etc with 23000 miles on the clock for £9k so you would struggle to get that for yours. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Realistically expect £5-6k tops.

KLP - Want to help me get one of those? !!!!?

Anyway - back on topic - if you need to let this car go anywhere near £5000 - please send me a pm.

I'll let you know when i want to sell it
They are beautiful to drive but due to their age and size they aren't worth much now. Bearing in mind the car cost £110k new its a bargain esp with that mileage. The rear wooden electric tables sold it to me!

I would like to get something good to take home to Australia - can take a car in with me tax free as part of my relocation home.

Ramandeep was distressed to hear about your Brabus too. :-(

Never got around to telling him, he had a death in the family so thought it wasn't the right time to let him know my bad news.
