Mercedes-Benz S 500 4MATIC BlueEFFICIENCY 7G-Tronic Plus, 435 hp, 2011

Basic Information and History

This Swedish-sold 2011 Mercedes-Benz S 500 4MATIC BlueEFFICIENCY blends luxury, power, and comfort in a way few others in its segment can. The car currently shows 162,738 km on the odometer, with its history fully documented through service records, driving logs, and a complete service folder.

Adding a touch of exclusivity is the special-order paint "Iridium Silver Metallic," an option that reportedly cost around 30,000 SEK when new.
