The Mercedes-Benz 300SEL W109 is an unobtrusive fast sedan

If I ask you to name fast German sedans, you will definitely start with the BMW M . But what if I mention the Mercedes-Benz 300SEL ? Nothing? Come on, what about the 300SEL nicknamed the " red pig ", which was AMG 's first production car and took second place at the 24 Hours of Spa in 1971. Yes, this special had a modified 6.8-liter engine with 428 horsepower, but the regular 300SEL was the base car for building this special. The shown mower from 1973 is for sale in Menlo Park , California for only 5100 Dollars (roughly 112 thousand crowns). It has only 163,000 kilometers on it and under the hood is a 4.5-liter V8. And in the summer you will be delighted by the skylight.
