Mercedes Benz S-Class 450SE 1977 Light Green Metallic in 1:43 scale
This is the Mercedes Benz S-Class 450SE 1977 Light Green Metallic in 1:43 scale by Matrix.
The 1977 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 450SE (W116) was a benchmark for luxury, safety, and engineering excellence in the late 1970s. As part of the first-generation S-Class, it set new standards with its robust crash-tested safety cell, pioneering anti-lock braking system (ABS) (one of the first in production cars), and an ultra-smooth 4.5L V8 engine delivering refined performance. Unlike many competitors of its time, the 450SE combined bank-vault build quality with cutting-edge technology, including hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension (optional) for supreme ride comfort. The W116 also introduced a more aerodynamic and modern design, moving away from the boxier aesthetics of the past. Its mix of durability, safety innovation, and timeless elegance cemented its status as one of the most influential luxury sedans of its era.
Excellent quality and finish. Beautifully crafted and exquisitely detailed. Models are hand
painted, decorated and assembled. Beautiful detail and accuracy of shape and scale. Photo
etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are also used. Each model
comes with its own acrylic display case.
