Mercedes-Benz 600 SL - more sporty luxury under the open sky is almost impossible

July 21, 2016 — Bruno von Rotz 81

When Mercedes-Benz introduced the 600 SL in 1992, a twelve-cylinder engine was the order of the day in the top class. With 395 hp and six liters of displacement, the 600 SL easily eclipsed the already very agile 500 SL, but also cost the equivalent of a simple detached house. "Luxury is what you don't necessarily need," wrote one tester at the time. This driving report describes the Mercedes-Benz 600 SL, showing it in many photos from then and now, as well as in the sales brochure. Of course, you can also listen to the sound of the engine.

Mercedes-Benz 600 SEC - Nobel Prize for the feasible

October 6, 2023 — Bruno von Rotz 117

Some simply considered the Mercedes-Benz 600 SEC to be the best car in the world, while others thought it was too big, too ostentatious, too clumsy or altogether superfluous. To this day, this controversy has not come to an end - a good reason to take a closer look at the coupé, which is now over 30 years old. This driving report tells the story of the S-Class coupé of the 1990s and shows it in current and historical pictures.
