1998 W140 S CLASS LWB BRABUS REPLICA

[deanflowers]

This one is also finished so time for it to appear here.

As with many projects i bough this as i had a set 19 Brabus monoblock III wheels in stock in black.

Started as a late black W140 business edition with a cream interior.

The entire interior was switched out to black nappa from an s600 including dash carpets etc etc....

Had the whole car painted, brabus front bumper, Japan spec bootlid with smaller plate recess, dechromed it, S600 grill dechromed, New old stock Amber lights, brabus badges and lowered the suspension.

I ended up selling the black wheels and bough a set of silver ones and had them refurbed in silver with diamond cut lips.

That looks absolutely brilliant, I was only saying yesterday in another forum how amber indicators don't look good, but they really suit this car.

What engine does it have?

[Flingstam]

Very very very cool.

Its only a 320.

I could turbo it but to be honest i will probably sell this one and possibly my other one and buy a 600

That is truly sensational. One of the best Mercedes ever built.

[neil79]

Who needs to go fast when you look that cool!

Are these the cars with double glazing?

[pSyCoSiS]

Yes, the W140 has double glazed windows. Way thicker than the later S Class versions.

[deanflowers]

Yes and the same chassis as a maybach i believe.

[alx]

Epic!

Nuff said.
