Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Divider window, jump seats, Alpine cassette, Becker mobile phone. Decent paint, some pitting in chrome and light wear to the drivers compartment. Reported to be in long term storage but started regularly. Chrome lightly pitted. First owned by William Burden, later restored by Mercedes Benz in 1983 at a cost of DM 250,000. No Reserve.

Market commentary

According to Top Gears Jeremy Clarkson, the M B 600 has the loudest horn in the world.... It also is exclusive, luxurious and distinctive. The age of this ones restoration coupled with its complicated systems is no small concern and this is all the money it could possibly have brought (notice that the word reasobly is not used in the preceding statement.) Russian oligarchs like the Landaulettes. and the 600 Pullman is a $200,000 car fresh from a $400,000 restoration.
