The 126 is an old mans car, thats what makes it even better its great for the ladies cause its so comfortable inside. On my 16th birthday my grandpa asked me if i wanted his old 300SEL casue he has no more room for cars, and the next day i woke up and the car was sitting in our drivway with it snowing outside. OH HAPPPY DAYS!![] x100
i don't think we would ever sell or trade our car. Its just one of those things with this car. That's why i am surprised people are selling hard to find AMG's.
i think with any survey, you have to look at the polled population.
The survey doesn't reflect any result other than that about 22 people between 16 and 40 are active readers and posters to this forum. It should also be to no suprise that there is some correlation between age and internet use.
The only reason I can think why we drive old S classes is because they're affordable. You can find one from $2000-to $10,000. All the rich old farts drive the new S classes. So when we have kids.. our kids will most likely drive w140 and w220.
I first got my 420SEL when I was 27. I sold that for the 95 S500 coupe. And four years ago, I added my mother's 560SEL to my current vehicles. I am 46 now.
35. I was a sophomore in High School when I saw Challenger explode, and I was a project architect responsible for a $81 Million project when I saw World Trade Center crumble in front of my very eyes.
Dad bought me the 420SEL because my parents wanted me in a "SAFE" car. Little did they know that this beast can pull 135 MPH no problem. It is a fantastic car and still runs like new @ 157k miles.
Looks like 10 teens have gotten daddy's hand-me-downs! [}]
