Powered by Mercedes-Benz's venerable 6.3-litre engine, the 300 SEL was certainly worthy of the three-pointed star. The 6.3-litre V-8 was one of the best Mercedes-Benz engines of all time. It was an engine born and bred on the race track, and it could catapult a car that weighed nearly two tons to a top speed of over 130 mph and to 60 mph from a stop in under seven seconds, respectable numbers for modern automobiles and an extraordinary feat for a luxury saloon in 1970. Adored with the finest luxury fitments of the time, this was a car for those who were looking for the best in terms of automotive refinement.
