600 (W100) "Grand Mercedes" W100 Owners Meetup (Mercedes Enthusiast)


The Mercedes-Benz 600 (factory code "W100") is a single-generation line of full-size ultra-luxury limousines and Pullman limousines, made by Daimler-Benz from 1963 through 1981. Nicknamed Der Grosser (Grand/Large Mercedes), succeeded the Type 300d "Adenauer" as the company's flagship model. It was positioned well above the subsequent 300-series in price, amenities, and status. It was mainly used by heads of states and Royalty. The Mercedes 600 still remains to be a very expensive car to own and maintain even today. Production: 1963-1981.

I scanned this primarily for Rob as he absolutely adores the W100. I got more articles on this car and Karl Middelhauve (the M100 engine expert). Patience. :t-cheers:
