Picking up a 1997 Mercedes s600 v12 coupe w140 c140 bigbody cl

[@geoffreyhoward4084]

I have a 1995 S500 Coupe. I’ve had it for 20 years in Chicago. Love it to death. Runs like a charm. Two toned. Black/Grey. Love your videos. Keep up the good info. Love to see that you’re gonna do w/S600

[@bobbob4561]

Anything you changed out ? Any problems with it ? I'm buying a 97 all back 2 door soon

[@bobbob4561]

Anything you can recommend to me ? As far as items to fix ??? Dying to buy it ..

[@fulltrottle123]

Awesome ride...Great find!! I've been quietly looking around for one myself..Best color too..Nothing like a Black Merc!!

[@quad1sport]

Benz on Benz on Benz. Very cool! Apparently, I need to move to Florida. So many 140s!

[@petescarport]

Lol. Yes. We need more w140 enthusiast

[@Paul7Chip]

Beautiful car...but yes "yikes" that interior...can't wait to see the transformation

[@raycroal]

the front right wheel was the original,those other rims are either of w211 or w221 or audi a8 but not a c140. ps facelift so no bad harness problems. btw the wheels on that sel the guy has go for a huge amount of money in europe like 2500 dollars worth

[@petescarport]

Yes you are right. What I actually meant was they are Mercedes original and not knock offs, but I may have said it wrong. Also thanks for being the first to catch those other rims. I kept my mouth shut because I wanted to buy the car. Wait till you see what I'm paying for car and rims. More to come. Thanks for watching.

[@raycroal]

@@petescarport yup you got to keep quiet about these things lol

[@daftryosuke8541]

Seeing the R129 and the purple VIP W140 was enough to get me to subscribe. Beautiful fleet on your hands.

[@hikopepper6434]

Can’t wait to get one when I become 18 already saving my money😁

[@EngiNetion]

I'm a huge fan of japanese cars, but C140 is always No1 to me

[@AgentMrX7]

Damn, you should watch an old top gear episode about this car... it originally was more expensive than house back then. Car for the super elite.

[@petescarport]

So crazy.

[@ElRayDelRio]

Looking at one with 140k miles. Seller is asking $2500. Might just scoop it up now that I've seen these coupes are hard to find and the prices are continuing to climb 🕺🏻

[@ElRayDelRio]

Wanted to follow back to this comment. Sadly the seller sold the car feom under me. Was really bummed after finding out the sad news. Oh well I ended up finding a 2008 BMW 535XI E61 in Northern California for $2k! I drove up over the weekend and picked it up and made a 9hr drive back home 😁

[@Tigerfire75]

Reclining rear seats were an option and sadly not all camw with it.

[@toddreynolds1928]

The SEL 500’s interior looked mint and cushy.

[@adriannyasia]

Sweet!! Glad you got it!! I’m almost done with mine, can’t wait..

[@petescarport]

Let's plan our first meet up. I know we can get together a lot of Mercedes lovers. I'm thinking we promote a meet up group for pre 2000 Benz

[@peterlaufer4077]

Pete, my name is Peter, I am in Clermont near Orlando, I've been looking for the perfect wheels for my 1999 S500, I love the wheels on your friend Exavior's (sorry for the wrong spelling) S500, could you please tell me what company they are from and where I can buy them, thank you. BTW my first car was a 1957 300SL, I wish I knew how to send you a picture on KZbin

[@petescarport]

So I can get you the exact specs on his wheels but they are made by rotoform and can be ordered online or through most wheel places like RnR

Thanks. Right now I've been uploading a lot on my Lexus sc300 but don't worry my passion and channel is dedicated to Benz. I have a new classic coming very soon too

Thank you. Planning a lot of videos this month on this car. We have a 96 sedan s600 as well so going to troubleshoot using parts from both

Omg yes. I just helped someone get one and we couldn't find a good example for less than $20k. Just search ebay and other car sites. They are going way way up

The vibration test was in 89 for the Lexus. Lexus had the smoother engine first

How many miles do the v12 engines last?

[@petescarport]

Good question. With proper maintenance many go over 200k. I just found one running perfect with 225k on it
