For decades, Mercedes-Benz built an enduring reputation for cost-no-object engineering, reliability, and tank-like build quality. Ask any diehard Silver Arrow enthusiast which model most epitomizes these philosophies and fingers often point to the cultish W116 generation S-Class. Helping pioneer technologies like electronic anti-lock brakes and a reinforced passenger cell with impact-absorbing crumple zones, the 280 number designated the use of the company’s new-at-the-time high-revving 2.8-liter dual-overhead-camshaft M110 straight-six pushing 185 hp. A striking car to look at presented in retro Caledonia Green with contrasting tan Velour and perfect Zebrano wood, this example is truly something of a time capsule with just 40k miles from new.
