One of the more expensive 560SECs on the register - this one was spotted in April 2021, asking $90,000 AUD. The car has just 140,000km on the clock, and looks immaculate. Some of these cars (particularly the low km Australian delivered examples), have exploded in value in recent times. Interestingly, the 380 and 500SEC models have not quite followed in any way, and you can get those under $20,000 still quite comfortably. The 560, as the top spec mode, in the S class range, was bound to take off - being the last of this breed with the most powerful engine, and the benefit of a facelift which works in its favour against earlier 126 coupes.
