This executive top of the range long wheel base S Class was the choice of executives and professionals. The S500 was the leader in luxury cars at the time.
With 302 BHP, there’s plenty of power with this velvety smooth superb S class engine. Air suspension all round makes this a dream to drive in all conditions.
This particular S500 was purchased in 2013 and the mileage when purchased was 33K miles. The previous owner a ‘titled’ Lady from Kent who was chauffeur driven treated the car with much love and care.
Since purchasing the car in 2013, a mere 16,900 miles have been added in 9 Years, and the car still drives wonderfully.
Virtually nothing missing regarding the paperwork with this S500.
It comes with an impressive collection of MOT certificates and receipts of copious amounts of maintenance.
We will be able to supply the new owner with a complete folder of previous MOTs, to authenticate the mileage, receipts and a record of all work carried out by my MB specialist garage in Glasgow together with the Dealership service history which came to me when we bought the car.
This folder is extensive and will be a great asset to maintaining the car’s value. We have just taken off the private plate so the new V5C is present together with the current MOT which expires in March 2023 ( Car passed once again with ‘no advisories’). itU1q5ORapCo3jjLOhDPYTRa3YqB2UUbG8IH1iMt.jpeg1.74 MB
The Interior
The car looks splendid with the body work, chrome and glass in excellent condition. As you will see from the photographs the interior is in true ‘showroom condition’.
The beige leather seats are in beautiful condition together with the carpets, floor mats and roof lining ( the car has never been smoked in ). The boot is spotless and houses the complete tool kit which came with the car, safety triangle for a breakdown and a new alloy wheel and new tyre.
The Body is in beautiful condition all round and all glass panels are scratch and chip free. There is the odd very small age related marks on the front drivers side bumper, and some very light corrosion on the lower wing and sill, although you really need to be close to notice, so nothing serious at all.
The engine sounds very sweet and buttery smooth and quiet for such a big S Class engine. As this was the top of the range S Class sold by Mercedes at the time, it comes with an extensive list of specification as you would expect e.g.
power assisted steering
power assisted brakes
cruise control
power windows
power seats (front and back with memory) and power mirrors
multi-function steering wheel
navigation system (amazing for a 2000 vehicle)
rear window blind
central locking with soft closing doors
electric slide tilting sunroof
anti-theft alarm system; seat heating (front and rear)
This car appeals to anyone who wants a Stunning Luxury Car that looks and drives like its only a few years old! It must be one of the finest examples out there. The S500 delivers power and luxury at an affordable price and Safety comes as standard. The Build quality alone stands head and shoulders over many newer models as this S500 its truly a superb car.
