Mercedes Benz S-class

Tuesday 04 November 2008
In late 1999, the W220 was introduced. The W220 was completely restyled, with a body that was slightly smaller and lighter than its predecessor. The S-Class incorporated the new styling cues first introduced on the first generation of A-Class the year before. Despite being smaller, the W220 S-Class offered more interior space than the W140. Production of the W220 S-Class totaled 485,000 units, slightly more than the production totals from the W140. The model is produced by Italian manufacturer Maisto and, unlikely to it's other models, looks quite ok.
