Bought an 87 560SEC last year. God I love these cars.
I have a 91 560, it's the best Benz!
Mercedes SEC one of the greatest car ever made for sure !
possibly the sexiest Mercedes within the last 50 years in my opinion
love this car 2 pieces..
You got that right
Timeless beauty.
this is why I love this car, simply beautiful... I will own one of these one day
I think the same ill own this car one day.
Het is dan ook een Turkenbak.
@MrPorgie999
I saw a 91 560 sec at a show for 11k us$ a few years ago.
I looked around a little at it, and nothing hinky jumped out at me at first glance.
Being a vw guy I know better than to jump in without info, but I think id like one.
I just need to learn about them first.
Cheers to that
Even without AMG modification, still the best looking benz ever!
300SL: am I a joke to you?
@@p__jay 300SL’s still great but not my type of era… 80’s is where I belong to!
@@p__jay ok that’s your opinion…
Sec looks better in my opinion
Hi mike I’m a huge fan, just ordered your book can’t wait to get it
beautiful car.....absolutely beautiful. I love older Mercedes. Proud owner of a 99 CL500, the younger cousin of this car....also owned a euro 5 speed manual 84 300D w123....sold it to a friend and i damn well sure am gonna buy it back in the next couple years. They just dont make cars like they used to
Can remember Patrick swayzey driving a 560 sec in roadhouse nice car.
legendary car !
I owned an '82 Sec Euro (grey market car) and now own, and am presently restoring with my son, a 1986 SEC AMG, (78k actual miles) which was actually built at the AMG plant in Germany, and has the full compliment of AMG options, most of which were only put on at their Home Facility, and NOT available as add-ons at any of their certified dealers. I can attest to the greatness of this car in not only looks, but in pure power and handling. Having owned American muscle cars, (first new car was a 442 W-30),Corvettes, an XKE Jaguar, etc, nothing comes close to the Mercedes. Sorry BMW guys, your car is a DISTANT 2ND! (If that close) I've also driven EVERYTHING on the planet, and haven't found anything that comes close. My car has the original AMG ground effects kit, the rarest rear deck spoiler, complete AMG suspension, AMG Tri-Y headers, the complete AMG Sebring Exhaust system, AMG Engine and Heads mods, and the full compliment of AMG interior options.(Gauges, steering wheel, floor mats, and upholstery accents), as well as the AMG Monoblock wheels.
I found it after looking for one for nearly 10 years, and it will NEVER be for sale. Sorry guys!
Doug Hein hey Doug could you message me I'm looking to get into the MB world I think I have found my w126 that I will be going with but need some advice.
Doug Hein do you have the amg aero 1s alloys?
Doug Hein do you got Instagram? I have AMG monoblocks as well on my w124
What did you pay for it?
560 is love of my life
Australia here.I bought a Mercedes 380 SEC , a doctors car, for $8800 in 2018.I spent $4500 on it to get it perfect and now in 2023 its a $25,000 car.I think within 8-10 years prices will double.These are a very well built,very good looking car.Nothing like the plastic rubbish they are building these days.
I have a 300ce
I love it
saw this episode one hour ago on french Tv ... 2019/09/04 ....
At first I didn't like what You did with this car, but all in all it came out good. Still I preffer STOCK.
Es muy interesante del vídeo del Mercedes Gutied modelo 83. Restaurado como tributo a sus fundadores. Me pueden enviar completo en idioma castellano por favor siii ?.

Wunderbar
Base on the sound it has what we call miss firing, which happens due to oil tube failure, it can be fixed
my uncle also has a 500SEC😍
That miss is the terrible Bosch fuel distributor. I had a 560 SEC. I spent 3 years dealing with it.
Mike bought from elder brother 😂😂
What season and episode is this?
Where can I find the rest of the video?

Where is Edd, show is nothing without him
It's Down Right the Sexyest Benz Without a Doubt!!!
Season?
i have one sec 560 sec / ece bj86 only for summer..... ;)
What is it worth now?
Its Bill Shatner.....
I have an urge to flip a car
Why do the mechanics leave the show? Mike seems to mistreat these blokes. Show is ok with mute on.
The thing I find most annoying with this episode, is the way Mike pretty much bullies the owner of the AMG parts into selling/giving them to him for the car
The way he slams the hood reminds me of J leno ... they obviously have never done body work ...
a benz from that era was very solid though.
@@ianmontgomery7534 yes they are ! my favorite car I own but the hood is aluminum and shouldn't need to be slammed.
@@zenjamin6262 Did different markets get different bonnets? the 500SEL saloons had steel in Australia but Aluminium is the US but maybe the coupes had Aluminium everywhere. Mike may be used to the saloons and not thought about it.
@@ianmontgomery7534 I'm not shure but I own a 91 560 sec and a 1989 an 1986 560sl they all have aluminum I'm thinking it's mainly later models.
@@zenjamin6262 Maybe the sports versions have aluminium but the sedans have steel - I can see the sense in that.
Merc
should have gone to sec shop Kent Ltd ha ha ha.

These were without question. The greatest cars Mercedes ever made from the late 70s with the 280 CDS in the 280C e's. Going? Right up into the SEC models you couldn't find Better cars even today. Date today's cars just don't compare to what Mercedes was able to? Do. Back in the 70s 80s and into the late 90s then after that they changed significantly. They. Just? Aren't? The? Same that they used to be once they merged with Chrysler they sort of totally lost their edge. I've own dozens of these cars. The last car I bought that I still have to this day. Which I believe is the best of whatever they were able to do. Is my 1999 CL 600 which is a 2 door co-op with AV12 motor that in the S class? Those are the greatest cars. I think even today if you're lucky enough to find them and You can do a little bit of work yourself. You've got something that you will never equal in today's market.
