WTF? No mention to the W140 when listing the other S Classes??
The W140 is LEGEND, bro.
Of course!
E34Benzin w140 is garbaaage looks so ugly and it looks like it's built like a chevy
General Pepe Rightwinger only people who like the w140 are rich people that went broke and are trying to hang to their prior old success in life.
The W140 looks like a big matchbox car.
E34Benzin the King☺!!!
3:38 When the dealer tells you how much its going to cost to fix your $8900 SL55 AMG
6:57 When you find out you can fix the problem for $25
Ali K 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀
lmao
Ali K For real! 😂😂😂👍
😂
DUDE😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I am so tempted to buy this car. It is so cheap, but every second you're driving around you are only thinking "please God don't let this break today" lol.
True🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have come to realize, of you can't afford the repairs you can't afford the car. Get the Honda or Toyota instead.
Just make sure it’s a 09 or newer
That is happening to me right now ...
What ever
Yes definitely get the S600 if you can
Adrian Lawson what about s550
Claude Debussy. Yeah a S550 is cool
its the same chassis as the S600 but it doesn't have all of the bells and whistles as a S600 does
Jimmy Grant This is true.
Maurice Searcy Good to know I will definitely look into it. I currently own a W220 like Tavarish and yourself but i'm thinking about upgrading.
Maurice Searcy or if the mileage is low enough get a extended warranty...
This gen S-class has aged SO well it looks like it could be the current 2017 model.
TheRzarectah yeah, the design is even better than the current model, but the interior so shitty
Swear the 2007-2013 models are so beautiful compared the 14+ but if the made the 14 interior in the 07 body style I'd go crazy.
Even today, it has aged so well
Where the hell is that plasti dipped Benz? You never did a proper reveal video. What about the cheap convertible? Does it still run? We need answers
All will be revealed soon
Tavarish hahahahah
BioHazard Shrimp str8 roast!😅
I own a 05 S600 twin turbo W220 myself! She's a beauty! Can't beat them 💯
The ONLY problem with this car is, once you have owned one (I currently have a 2007), there is almost nowhere else to go. I agree that if you are worried about cost, don't get one, but if you have never driven one, you really don't know how to make a comparison with anything else.
In Scotty Kilmer voice YOU THINK YOU GOT A GOOD DEAL.
hehehe
Lmfao
LOL whats up with all the cheap S-Class videos dropping today? These cars are the business! This car is missing one of its intake ducts and the front part of the engine cover!
Yup, I noticed that as well.
The quality of these videos is going through the roof. Nice work!
stop being scared of old benz, has one for 4 years, spent less than 2000 in repair
thus far.
Awesome bro!
Dude! Your video quality just keeps getting better and better!
I am really loving this review series. I hope you do more and you get a lot more cool cars to review!
Pentosin is a fluid/oil company, not a specific type of fluid.
You're right!
S11 is the product.
Oddly enough we sell that at the auto parts store I work at. I think I've sold at most two liters of the stuff in five years. Both times the customer thought the price was some kind of plot against them personally. Ironically, a lot of Mercedes and BMW owners are cheap fucks, always looking for a cheaper substitute for the correct fluid, filter, or other parts...
tempest411 Would you pay 5x more for the same fluid?
For the correct fluid, sure. My Audi uses something similar. I've had to add just a few ounces in ten years of driving it!
Its great to see how your filming has progressed from the selfie days. Well done
Get the new S600!!. Keep up good work. Love your videos. Been a big fan of your content since the days of reading your stuff on Jalopnik
Great review. Your show alot of enthusiasm in your vids. Makes me want to get one of these and I only drive small twin turbos.
Cheap to buy expensive to repair...
My thoughts exactly. Visit the Middle East and find neglected Benzs everywhere.
Not if you fix it yourself and don’t get parts from the dealership.
Absolutely bro.
I have very chep deal to buy S350 CDI 2007 V6.
But so worried what if it break down!!!!
Chris M i hope you have all the Mercedes Benz special tool to fix it your self 😂
Not if you can do it yourself 😂 open a book stupid fucks 😂🔥
The really awesome thing about these older S600s is that now that they've trickled down into the far lower price bracket, cheap replacement parts are readily available for much less than the dealer would quote you.
Gotta say Tavarish, you're videos are very professional looking. If I didn't know better I'd say you had a whole production and editing team behind you. And this is the best episode I've watched so far. Keep up the great work, it's very entertaining. Big up from the UK.
Give us more content on the SL55 :)
I'm glad that while ur still making great videos u r also earning some more bucks, u deserve that bro.
Just bought mine. ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!
Remember watching the review of this car on top gear 10 years ago. That night vision and it also had voice control. Car was so ahead of its time.
Great video. Thanks. This is why I recommend your sight.
If you get the S600 you should try straight pipe to experiment (sound)
Videos are getting better and better
Look at you today!! Here I am with my new s class watching your videos, and now you have a massive channel, CarTrek, and a new Benz of your own. Happy New Year man!!
Look at superspeed rob you might want that one
HyperBlueWRX was looking for this comment
Get it man. you gave us a good presentation, and your obviously all over it.
Hey Chuck congratulations man, very helpful!!!!!
Dammit Tavarish show us the Plasti Dipped S class! But seriously love this channel. Buying a CL55 AMG soon thanks to you
Get one. You love it.
This was a great review, nothing stupid and "i want to be funny all the time"....keep it up!!
I love how stately it is. It's very understated. Which one is it?
I really love your vids!!
It would be great to see on that v12 Benz man! hope you get one soon!
What a car! Cool video bro! I'm getting one!!!
Loved the warning before the speed run
All in all great information.
Great video Tavarish.
W140 (95-99 S Class) is legend, however I love this too, hell If I can pay off my current car I'll buy this lol
This was a fun and excellent review. I found on in Atlanta with 78,000 miles for $15,999. I'm checking it out... Oh it white with cream interior...
Please get one of these!!! They're so cool
My Air shocks went out in my S55 AMG so I has Spring coils made from a specialist place in Raliegh NC 4 were about $1100 and they also sent the by- pass switch for the light, currently bought to get a 2013 S600 with 120K for about $12000 over here in Busan Korea.
Awesome link to Turo! Never heard of them before, Dutch guy here with travel plans to the US. Was searching for a convertible in the LAX area, Hertz etc charge up to $100/day for a car, same car on Turo $50!
Dude that was so funny when you said your w221 was the best s class ever made, besides the one that came after it and all the ones that came before it. It was like you were reading my mind!!!
I would agree that an S600 should be in your future. But I would finish your S class first. It was looking so good with your new look. I'd also be curious to see what you sell it for and how much you have in it. Profit maybe?
That car is definitely Well kept...cheers to its owner !!
I love the S600, badass car. You should definitely get one and try to get the amg version of it.
I love this S-class and i believe you really should consider it. it really is a steal if you can manage to find it at 16-19 k range.
Buying one today, it's my first Mercedes ever and a V12. Exactly in 20mins directly from the auction.
Yes, please get this one. This is literally THE BEST car you can get for the cheapest, although to maintain it, I believe it would be pretty hard, however I think it is worth it. I dont know about the mods tho, cuz I think that this car should stay with its original look, atleast really close to it :)
Buy one! I would love to see more videos with this s-class! ;D
My channel started blowing up when I got a w220 2001 s600 for $1600 at IAAI. Now I won a w221 08 s63 for $6000 from Copart and I couldn’t agree with you more. The difference between the 220 and 221 is insane!! Thanks for the video 3 years later.
Your videos inspired me to get my 04 s600 with 72k. Only I paid $11,000 not $1,600 😅 luckily it passed full inspection at the dealer, and only has a small leak in each corner for the abc. I’ll have to try the hydraulic leak stopper you used to see if it holds off haha
Definitely get the S600
My favorite W221 color by far, my S550 is the same Andorite Gray. I kinda wish I got the 600, but then the repair costs of the ABC suspension turns me right back to the 550. Also, where's the intake on the car, the cover and tubing seems to be missing on that specific one.
jeeesus tavarish, your videos are getting so cool dude, keep it going, nice editing cheers from chile
About to buy one for 8k with 82k miles. Have a 06 s430 4matic now and am super excited to see how the s600 drives
Definitely GET THIS CAR!!! you need it
O yes please build that S600 this would be a awesome high performance Turing car that everyone could be comfortable in 👍👍
Is the check engine light included in that price?😂😂😂
Another great video, I love your enthusiasm and attitude. You have made me want to buy an Aston Martin and an SL at the same time! This car is beautiful and what a price! Keep up the great work ditch the haters you are going to have a huge following!
Great video love the w221
The 600's are awesome! I actually went down to FL to buy an S600 (08), but it was in horrible shape so that didn't happen 😢 Looked at some in Chicago with no luck either, so wound up just getting an 08 S550 4Matic, but it is fully loaded at least. Love my S Class, but recently realized my V12 dream by getting an SL600 with the rare AMG body kit (I have some videos on my AutoAddict channel). It's got some issues, unfortunately, so I'm not getting all my V12ness out of it. I have no repair experience but will be trying to fix everything myself, so wish me luck. 🤞 This S600 is still definitely my dream/goal. Awesome car!
It has a mode called dyno mode that it turns off every safety systems like traction control and it can do a burnout
I do like your lens mate
Subscribed yo! This is a great vid!
well im sold. fould an 07 s600 going for 13k. think i might see about maybe getting it.
It's missing one of the air intake tube located on driver side, LOL!!
Nice video. I have a 2015 C200 and lately, I've been thinking of getting myself a 2008 or above S-Class. Your video definitely helps, but I am scared about the maintenance cost. Agency repairs will have me selling off my kidneys, hence I don't want it. Can you make a video on something related to maintenance costs of S-Class of that era, and how to get them fixed cheaply? Esp the electronic stuff. As it has so many bells and whistles I am always paranoid of which one is going to fail. My C200 is on 5yr warranty so I don't worry much about it. But an out of Warranty S-Class might give me sleepless nights.
When is the first video of the new S class??? I see you and hoovie pulled the trigger. Not a bad price!
Great that you showcase these awesome engineered cars, for ever I felt like in auto world Mercedes was almost hated and mostly write off by most. Yes you should get one, W220 would be even cheaper
G55STEYR Isi
Although used, I've owned 116, 126, 140, and now own a 220, right now looking to switch for a 2012 S600 black on black, if available near Cocoa Beach, Fl. Fabulous autos, I did not use them as daily drivers, however. Bought them to wash them, shine them, you know how it is. Hehehe
This is a very interesting way to get vehicles to make videos about! Did you have to get permission from the owner to film the car? I'm wondering if I can do this too since we're having trouble getting cars to film.
Yes definitely get that one
Let's just say if u had that s600 the Aston and the sl amg that's a stunning garage
i had a set of those rims on my w210. very heavy but very strong. as the usual with mercedes, you get what you pay for. .. seeing as i bought a w210, i get a lot of rust.
True, this W221 S600 is becoming a bargain, but if you're an extreme cheapskate like me, the W220 S600 is even more of a bargain, with many examples available under $10k!
Great info!
very very nice but with all those moving extra features/parts comes the repair bill when then privacy shade glass stops sliding or something else electrical has a malfunction. Cool car but not practical. Nevermind if something mechanical goes wrong. It'll more than likely cost more to repair than the car is worth.
Nice review, only thing with these kind of cars is, the buying part is not an issue the maintenance is. Would love to ride such a car but it will in the long run consume your money & time... Even in Europe the parts are really expensive... Too bad tho, it is amazing how much technology is in such a car
Knowing the current price, I do actually would love to get one for a while already.
What no mention of the active inflatable bolsters when the car goes around the corner that is one of the best features!
I can't wait to get one.
I love these old top of the line Benzes with big power as much as anyone! I just sold my Renntech CL600TT and am about to sell my Renntech SL55 (both Designo cars). They have been fabulous cars and fun to drive for a long time, but before the maintenance catches up to them I am passing them on down the road. These cars have depreciated so much that they are very cheap to buy but the fact remains that just because many folks can afford to buy them now does not necessarily mean that they can afford to own and maintain them. I (and you) are handy and resourceful enough to do many of the repairs ourselves but for those who must pay to have the cars repaired the cost of maintenance can quickly and easily become too much relative to the value of the car. Even with free labor the parts prices alone are quite significant. As you stated, these cars were well into 6 figures when new, and we must remember that these cars do not know that they have depreciated down to Honda Civic levels of value. Same goes for the parts prices! Big fun and big power, but it is wise for potential buyers to be prepared because sooner or later eventually the big maintenance costs will come.
Yes! S600 up NOW!
I had a S600 before. The expensive repair and maintenance on the coil packs and ABC systems are total nightmare. The V12 drinks half tank for going just around 40 miles. If I have a chance to get another S class, I will go for the S63 or C63 for sure.
Yep, get the one in KS for sure!
YES! Ditch the W220 and get a W221. I owned a W220 when it was the current shape, and loved it. The difference between that and the newer generation is huge. I don't think you should get Hoovies s600. You should see if you can find one that needs work. Even an S550 v8. I'd be fascinated seeing the fixes.
can't wait to see hoovies s600
Greeting from Manchester England I just started watching your videos I like your stuff. Do these have 2 spark plugs per cylinder? I nearly had a heart attack when my c32 Amg needed 12 spark plugs!!
Yep
it is the best looking s class especially from the rear
congrats on ur new car :) saw hoovies video :)
dude get an s600 and restore to good as new don't modify it. that way i can decide if i should do it myself!
I think you should keep the S Classyou already have. You made it such a big project and getting rid of it would be a slap to the face. Plus that new S Class may be even harder to maintain on your own. Lol but then again your Tavarish. You could figure that out easily.
Buy one Tav, you know you need it!
Its time for an upgrade bruh, do this!!!!
Funny you posted this, I saw someone else who posted a 2006 S65 AMG that they bought for $3750. You can get killer steals these days.
