Description
OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE
The 1991 Mercedes-Benz 350SDL was a flagship diesel luxury sedan in the W126 S-Class lineup, notable for being the last diesel-powered S-Class sold in the U.S. until the mid-2000s. It featured a long-wheelbase design, offering exceptional rear-seat comfort and a stately presence. Under the hood was a 3.5-liter turbodiesel inline-six, producing around 134 horsepower and 228 lb-ft of torque.
Praised for its smooth ride and solid build quality, the 350SDL embodied Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to engineering excellence, with advanced safety features for its time, including ABS brakes and a reinforced passenger cell. The car’s understated elegance, chrome-finished accents, and plush interior made it a favorite among executives and long-distance drivers seeking durability and comfort.
This 350SDL was delivered new to Crown Automobile Company Inc. of Hoover, Alabama, and has remained with its first owner. Power is provided by a replacement 3.5-liter turbodiesel inline-six sending power to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The body is finished in Astral Silver Metallic, and the seating surfaces are upholstered in black leather. Service records and a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report accompany this 337k-mile S-Class.
