Mercedes-Benz S600 1997 Obsidian Black Metallic 1:18

When the S-Class of the 140 series was presented in March 1991, the reactions could not have been more different. While some appreciated the imposing dimensions and technical innovations, others rejected the newcomer as out of date because of its sheer size.

The Norev model shows the S-Class in its most powerful version – equipped with a 6-litre V12 engine. The paintwork in obsidian black metallic is more understated – a colour in which it feels like all vehicles of this type have left the production line. Combined with a black interior and a Frankfurt number plate, it is a classic company saloon car.
