And now it's time to give it.....a DOUG score
Ăsta a fost mașina mortuară....⚰.......sau ambulanță 🚑🚑🚑foarte urâtă wagon
Ugly interior color. Would have been better stock grey or black or tan color
Sexy interior
Ugliest car ever made
Rear styling is neat but the boot is tiny and looks like the rear seats don't fold, making it a disappointment as a load lugger.
I have a question. Could you theoretically fit a brass band inside?
I love Benz cars, but this is one of the worst mods that I have ever seen. White wheels on white exterior, green interior as if a 3 year old picked the color, white grille doesn't suit either and not to mention the shitty speaker enclosures in the boot. The 140 is a legend and this car doesn't do it any justice.
Learn something new everyday
Its a cool car . But dont you hear the loud fuelpumps bc if this modification ? & yes the green is hideous . But we are used to tastless stuff from arabs 😹
Very nice video! Thank you so much for all your efforts. And please make more. It makes me want to drive down to Long Beach California and visit our own Mercedes Classic Center. I’m not sure but I think I remember hearing it’s the only one outside of Germany. Anyway, Thank you once again! From Los Angeles.
Such a great feat of German engineering history! However, in my opinion that interior color destroyed it 🤮
So cool😍😍😍
This is awesome, but that head unit is so out of place. You'd think they could have found a better modern one or put in a Becker unit. Any idea how much this sold for? I didn't see the sales price when I went to the linked page.
like
Wow thats cool...also great way to go from church to grave 😂
This much effort to make this, and yet they left a carpenter's hinge exposed, looking like you made it with plywood.
I really like it. Generally, I’m not a big fan of ostentation, but this just looked good (IMHO) and I’d be very happy owning it!
There were quite a Lot of similar Cars built in Germany. For Instance VW Scirocco Wagon (SciWaGo as a Wordplay on Dr.Schiwago)
It looks awful.
Monstrosity
Can be used as Mafias coffin car
Not orginal mercedes.
Correct
I was bidding with you guys 😂😂
Nice haha!
That interior is appalling.
Each to their own!
@@HorsepowerHuntersYT exactly that 😂
Ugly car! not aesthetic estate
I like it!
the stupidest car conversion I've ever seen. They made a station wagon without rebuilding the back seat and moving the fuel tank under the floor. Who needs a station wagon if they can't fold the back seats down. There's not even a ski slot in the seat. Complete nonsense because compared to the normal W140 the difference is that you can put your suitcase upright instead of just flat, but you can't put more suitcases in. Someone will immediately say that the S-Class isn't for carrying things, maybe that's why Mercedes didn't make the S-Class station wagon? In addition, the C-pillar is fucked up, it's definitely too thick for the whole body of the car. The boot lid gives the impression of a conversion from the C-Class, it's so small next to the body of the back.
Maybe I need to buy a W140 and do it properly!
Ridiculously wasted trunk space, not even 2xtra seat as it was in e class. Dont like the interior colour, but awesome car anyway.
I need to build a 7 seater, flat folding W140 estate
best S-Class ever is W126.
For me it’s 140
If you go to the effort of making an S Class estate, I would use something other than brass wood hinges on the rear floor well cover and side pods. Lovely motor, I am being picky!
Great point!
At the time this would have been considered one of the ugliest cars ever and that's why it's so rare now.
I think they look great
I have new favorite color now 😂
Green or white? 😂
@@HorsepowerHuntersYT both 😂

Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Interesting, never saw this car before
Thanks for watching!
0:13 "-1996" . It can't be 1996 with such climate panel as on 5:48 :)
I believe I was misinformed!
@@HorsepowerHuntersYT 1994 . Thanks for review !
It is kind of a unicorn but it is still very noticable that it is a conversion. The thick c-pillar from W140 sticks out and makes it look like an "unnatural" estate. The estate part might be 75% blended in to the car but the remaining 25% makes it look like a botch job. The craftsmanship might be on point but the car itself is an abomination. The W140 is beatiful, this is not.
Mercedes-Benz of the 70s and 80s were 10 times better engineered than those in the 90s. It seems they traded quality for quantity. My Father drove S-class Mercedes and they were built like tanks. His 1987 420SEL had 375,000 miles on it after he drove it for 10 years.
Could be worse, it could be a Mercedes from the 00s
الخلفيه بشعه😊
No sound of engine !!?? 😭
These cars are very quiet. Look up @effspot if you want to hear how it could sound
maybe the glass is taken from a w210 boot, but that looks like custom or heavely modded metal as a w210 boot does not fit those lights like that, it curves around rounded lights.
That interior hits harder than Mike Tyson
😂 🥊
I love 🇩🇪 wagons, but the greenish colour is classy 💯👌🏻
The back is round.. doenst fit to the rest of the car which is more boxy
Looks horrible
I had a 2004 S600 AMG v12 twin turbo I love that car having issues so the main thing that I have wrong with it was the gear shifter would get stuck in park they took the plastic parts out and put aluminum part in and then it was fine after that
That car takes my breath away
I am very sure this car when it was new, it is a made to order/ custom unit bought by funeral parlour 🤣🤣🤣
Not this one! Would be black anyway surely!
Действительно интересный вариант
