1970 Merceds Benz 600 Pullman Black

[@commandertopgun]

1970 Merceds Benz 600 Pullman IS DEFINITELY ON MY BUCKET LIST FOR 2024, ALWAYS HAS BEEN A DREAM-CAR OF MINE- THANK YOU CONCERT OF KIMGD.

[@guenterfalz9865]

I had the pleasure, or rather the honor, of having worked in Germany as Export Customer Service Representative for this car. That was the best time of my professional life. Of the many celebrities I met, the car itself was the most impressive. Unbeatable!

[@kanyevest]

thats so cool! would dictators ever pass by themselves to check it out? like, the african presidents?

[@ravisriram6746]

Stately, elegant, even majestic. Just some of the words that come to mind to describe this iconic car. One can see why it was a favorite of the likes of diplomats, captains of industry and, well, despots. Thank you for the video.

[@Nam-id7kj]

Gorgeous 600. Somethings going on under the hood, I've heard 240D's that are quieter. I owned a 4.5 & 6.3. Prost!

[@enriquelopez9124]

Awesome looking Mercedes 600 Pullman in black

[@WSNO]

ah yes, i bought one of these off a fellow who traded it for a 454 chevelle in the late seventies. done had it blinged to the nines by a renowned coach builder of the era. still have the car to this day, and take her out on the roads at least once a year. softest ride, smoothest trunk close, and luxurious seats, a ride that can't be beat.

[@DrNick-mb9df]

Just majestic beyond impressive.

[@jobmunene3263]

This Merc has a presence like no other car on earth. It signifies power and authority, period.

[@niyazmather]

Totally agree. But you have to be filthy rich to own one of these. The cost to maintain this is a kidney. Or 2 maybe.

[@billthatcher4121]

I am the carefully proud owner of a Rolls Royce, and I would not include Rolls in this comparison. Cadillac, of course, but never Rolls!!!! Do your due diligence BEFORE making this kind of statement, it reveals your true ignorance!!!!

how much did it cost back in the 70's? must have been costly

This is the first time a see a Pullman 600 without a sunroof !! Wich year model is this one? I think it´s older than 1972.

[@ИванПетров-ы7и5щ]

[@masuphamolapo9560]

I first became aware of it in the 80's on the show Falcon Crest, a conveyance for only the super wealthy & important I thought to myself!🤔

[@CarlosAlberto-ii1li]

My sister in laws father was a chauffer for a Lord somebody and they bought a new one in 1970, he went to collect it from the dealer and was given a book, a badge and a wristwatch, identical to this car too 600 model.

[@hyena131]

As a former murderous African general who took power in a blood soaked coup in the mid 70's, this was my primary vehicle choice as the tyrannical president of said country. I obviously can't say which African nation I ruled with an iron fist, but now I live my days blissfully in exile and still have my 600 Pullman.. This video brought back wonderful memories.

[@gautamsehgal9683]

In 1950s, the American cars were the pinnacle of luxury. Better than a Rolls, Bentley or Mercedes. Their styling was so superior that in 1958 Mercedes brought out tailfins on their cars. Love the 600 but each of them have their own place. P.S. These cars cost a bomb to maintain and fix

[@WeeShoeyDugless]

There wasn't an American car built that commanded the respect of the whole world like the 600, none, ever!

[@gautamsehgal9683]

@WeeShoeyDugless probably in that era. Look at the V16 Cadillacs from the 1930s era. Magnificent cars and alot more reliable than the 600. Having said that, the 600 is a great car!

[@WeeShoeyDugless]

@@gautamsehgal9683 More cylinders doesn't mean better, the sweetest, most balanced is a straight 6. A better car than the Caddy was the Dusenberg SJ.... But, sadly, who remembers them? The 600 will always be remembered as the 'Best car in the World' because it was and is.

[@pastohh]

I was born in the 80s in a 3rd world country and the younger me thought of these as old fashioned and associated them with our tinpot dictators, to me the epitome of luxury was the Lincoln townhouse limousines ubiquitous in Hollywood movies, but now I appreciate them for the engineering masterpieces they are.

[@dineshnalakakadadora3471]

Kudos to you for maintaining this vehicle I have two cars benz w 115 and 123 Both vehicles do not run very badly The w 115 car was the official car used by the world’s first prime minister ( Mrs. Shirimawo Bandaranayake ) My dream is to get those 2 cars running It is not easy The politicians of sri lanka have stolen the national economy and the whole country is in debt to the world The country is now being run by IMF and world aid Everything is taxed Just breathing is not taxed I have seen benz cars abandoned in some countries which are in the best condition Both my cars have about 60% damage to the bumper Recovery is difficult If you have the body of the w 115 or 123 cars in you possession, I would be grateful if you could provide me with the body of those cars. Also, if there is any possibility to help me in making these two cars, I would be grateful Sorry if there was a mistake…… I am also a person who loves benz cars…………………

From the start right up to '70's and '80's & even the '90's Mercedes existed in a class of it's own - sadly lost the plot thereafter.

[@billolsen4360]

Somehow, today's aerodynamic designs don't lend themselves well to stretch limousines.

[@teymourbayat8266]

The 600 needed a bigger engine, a quality auto transmission (GM), an efficient a/c (GM), and ridden of all this nonsense hydraulic/pneumatic powered everything. Also, even the swb models weren't fit as owner/drivers (unlike Silver Shadows) because of the disproportion between front side windows that are too narrow, and the rear compartment side glass given it a "must be chauffeured" look. If not for that styling flaw the 600 would have sold like hotcakes (like the Silver Shadow).

[@tnyamwanza]

[@intrepidone2796]

Technically the very best back then! Styling was a different thing: All that fat chrome shouted questionable taste - RR did a much better job in creating sophisticated design.
