Mercedes-Benz 560 SEC

The 560 SEC is the coupe version of the W126 S-Class, and the top of that range in the late 1980s. Its 5.6-litre V8 and Bruno Sacco's clean two-door body made it a sought-after car when new, with good examples reportedly selling above list price.

This UK-supplied car was first sold by Continental Cars of Cardiff in November 1987 and has covered about 32,000 miles with three owners. It is finished in Astral Silver over dark blue leather. The original stamped service book records dealer servicing, and the car comes with all its books, keys and tools. The Romans rear screen sticker is still in place from its time with that dealer.

The dealer's inspection and major service by a marque specialist, with work invoiced at around £5,000, was followed by new tyres and an air conditioning service. A Blaupunkt Bremen head unit with Bluetooth and DAB has been fitted, along with upgraded speakers and a modern-function aerial. The original Becker unit stays with the car, as does the E1 SEC number plate.
