The Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL 6.9 – the high-performance version of the W116 S-Class Saloon made its debut at the 1974 Geneva Motor Show. It was based on the long-wheel base version of the 1972 W116 chassis and featured the robust M100 V8 engine and full hydro-pneumatic suspension and was the first passenger car to be fitted with a modern ABS system - the Bosch four-wheel multi-channel electronic, anti-lock braking system. With luxury to rival a Rolls and the sporty power to chase down a Porsche, for several years the 450 SEL 6.9 held the title of the fastest accelerating European saloon – a title recognised by the prestigious Car of the Year award in 1975. All of which is captured in this superb diecast from the Bradford Garage.
