    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.

  • @xot80

    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.

    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.
