Exterior features include a power sliding sunroof, a power adjustable passenger side mirror, dual chrome exhaust tips, and headlamp wiper delete. The car retains it's Euro-spec lighting and bumpers.
Staggered 17” Borbet A wheels feature paint-matched centers with a polished lip. The wheels are wrapped with Taurus UHP tires measuring 245/45 front and 275/40 rear with 2020 date codes. A full brake fluid flush was performed in May 2023.
The cabin is trimmed in Black Leather (261) with Burl Walnut wood trim lining the center console, gearshift, dashboard and door panels. Interior features include an OEM+ Mercedes-Benz head unit with an upgraded sound system and trunk-mounted subwoofer, a fire extinguisher, functioning cruise control, full air conditioning with head unit from the W208 AMG donor car, and a Victor DB3 wood and leather steering wheel.
The Victor DB3 steering wheel fronts W210 AMG gauges including a 260-kph speedometer and 7k-rpm tachometer, along with gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The odometer reads 191k km (~118k miles) with approximately 11k kilometers added since the engine swap in 2021.
This C126 is powered by a swapped 5.4-liter M113 V8 which is factory rated at 342 horsepower and 376 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 722.6 five-speed automatic transmission. Both the engine and transmission were swapped from a W208 CLK55 AMG with 180k kilometers. Recent maintenance includes an engine oil and oil filter change, transmission fluid flush with filter, differential fluid flush and power steering fluid flush with filter. The car has been set up to run on both LPG or petrol, and the seller states the LPG system can be deleted at any time.

Amazing integration of components
Shipping, customs, insurance bond, port unloading fees will run about 5k to bring this car from Europe

OMG this is awesome....!

Taurus tires eh? Why put cheap junk tires on a car that deserves so much more?
$6,000 bid placed by @Ranger902
Do we have any running videos of the car? Also, theoretically, if someone wins this car from the US, what would be the process in terms of payment, customs, shipping etc? Thank you letting me know on how much the rates for shipping and customs fees.
Correct the listing: 126.046 = 420 SEC
@Twinkytoo Rear center console always be like original options. When car have passenger AIRBAG, center console go 100% from factory, other can order or buy after like option.
I also had a 1991 560SEC. Why does this car have the passenger glove box and rear center console of the pre-90 C126 models?
@MBEnthusiast Hi, all possible, and now its not expensive. From 2500-3500 from Latvia till USA.
@nptmbm Hello, yes its possible. In this video you can look cold start, how work engine and all function on dashboard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC4q_F8UuTU
Getting it to US is not complicated process. Shipping will cost You around $3500. Customs fees will be another 2.5% of the sale value. It usually takes around month and a half to get it to East Coast .
@FamilyGarage Any chance we can see a cold start video and driving video?
Interested in this car, however what would be the process of bringing it into the US?
