Re: 1995 Mercedes-Benz S70 AMG (7.0 S) - Any info & pics?

I have never heard about this model.

According to that piece of history in German, the engine displaces 7 liters. I need to do some research on this thing.

I just read the article again: "von Mercedes aber nie offiziel angeboten wurde..."!! You couldn't buy this car at a dealer...or official!

Yep, but I should have heard about it though!!!

Makes me wonder why they didn't just stick in the 7.3-l V12 though. Why put in a 7.0-l V12?

This car for a 1995 must have had much more hype than even the S65 today. It must have been more like the Brabus CLS Rocket.

Probably because the 7.3 wasn't available.

On the subject of this engine, the first generation Zonda S actually featured a 7.0 litre, 12 cylinder engine (the specifications of that engine were near indentical to this one).

Sort of related. I believe this one is a S73.






This was for sale in Hong Kong.

Terrible.

I always hated the front of that CL generation.

The W140 looked pretty good, but with the CL front...terrible. Terrible.

And who converted this W140 into an estate?

There is an article in the magazine "brandeins" about the old W140!! Very funny... I'll scan the article soon (sadly, it is completely in german)
