Watch Mercedes S500 (W140) Get Long Overdue First Wash In 10 Years

For many car enthusiasts, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class from the W140 generation is one of the best – if not the best – models ever engineered by the company. Some even argue it was the "last true S-class," as its successor had reliability issues and lower quality interior. A total of 432,732 examples from the W140 generation were produced and one of them was recently found sitting abandoned for more than 10 years. 

The folks over at WD Detailing decided to save this car from being scrapped and bought it from its previous owner. It is a 1996 Mercedes S500 that hasn’t been driven for around a decade and is now covered in dirt and debris. It needs a full wash and detailing and the WD Detailing team is ready to give it exactly that.
