The car’s story
AUTOart's Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC scale model stands out for its accuracy and build quality. Its scale is 1:43 and its weight is 0.5 kg. The W126 replaced the earlier W116 and likewise belonged to the S-Class, or Sonderklasse, meaning “special class”.
The 500 SEC (W126) was styled under the direction of Italian designer Bruno Sacco.
The Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC (W126) coupe was unveiled in September 1981. The model was produced for 12 years, with 74,060 coupe-bodied cars built in total. From 1985, a driver's airbag and ABS became standard, with a passenger airbag available as an option.
