Vehicle Description
500SEL AMG /48K miles / AUTHENTIC AMG / RECARO seats / EURO

Available now this incredible, European market W126 Mercedes Benz 500SEL AMG finished in Astral Silver over Blue Velour/Leather.

It is equipped with a very early AMG optics package with corresponding stamps and markings, which was reportedly fitted at AMG in Germany early on the car’s life.

Genuine and European ownership period AMG equipment includes:

- AMG front spoiler 78807029
- AMG Side skirts 78821020
- AMG Rear spoiler 7880014
- AMG Penta wheels with AMG markings
- AMG Penta spare wheel with Brand new Pirelli Cinturato never used, dated 1983
- AMG 300 Km/H speedometer showing 76,859 kms (~48,036 Miles)
- Recaro Idealsitz C front seats with power functions finished in Blue Leather, produced in 1981
- AMG Steering wheel

Was delivered new in Belgium in February of 1983 where it stayed until 1993 where it was exported to Japan during the island nation’s economic boom and demand for AMG cars.


Later add-ons include a 1990’s Nakamichi TD-1200 head unit and upgraded speakers.

SOHC 5.0 M117 engine delivers power effortlessly and efficiently through the 722 transmission to the ground without a hiccup. Cold and warm start is perfect and without smoke. 1983 Automatic Control works and cools to period standards.

Blue interior has been kept in outstanding good and original condition without re-dye and it is soft and comfortable without cracks or holes. Leather upgraded rear bench seat is electrically reclinable through factory door controls. Velour on door panels and carpeting is rich and soft to the touch, inclusively in the trunk. Some light weathering is present on the left side bolster of the driver seat, kept in benefit of the 1983 original materials and finish.

Astral Silver body presents very well all around. Front grille and aerokit were finished at AMG in body color to add to the sports luxury appearance. Some light weathering can be seen on the clear coat, which is typical of cars this period. Paint meter shows in the 6’s all around, which is consistent to an accident-free car with body modifications made early on.

Car comes with tools, jack, one key, spotless Carfax report and impeccable Florida title. First registration in Japan was 1993, which is stated as year in the title due to import regulations when it was imported to the US in 2021.

VIN is WDB866-714-090831298
