BigEgyptian's Comments

1990 Mercedes-Benz 1000SEL Carat Duchatelet

BigEgyptian said:

LOVE THIS!
Having grown up in Egypt, there were a few 1000SELs driving around the streets of Cairo. Years later, I found out that my now-father-in-law actually had one during the period. White exterior, all custom white interior, and front & rear TVs. Never got a chance to see a picture of it, unfortunately. Just stories from my father-in-law and my wife when she was growing up. No idea which tuning house made it either.

For anyone who doesn't know, 1000SELs were really popular in the 80s & 90s; always brimming with luxury features and highest quality fit & finish as well as all the technology they could pack in there. Clarion HiFi systems, multiple phones, TVs & VHS players in cars were unheard of, at the time.
They were models offered by multiple tuning houses (mostly German) and were the utmost statement in opulence. Think Maybach, today, when a mere S600 Merc is not luxurious enough.

http://1000sel.com/ is a fun read for anyone who has some time

Can you tell I like these? :)
