In the past, Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman cars were the favorite choice of heads of state, especially in third world countries. If you want to seize the opportunity to own a Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman head of state car, you should attend the auction event of the RM Sotheby company taking place on 19-20/1 in Arizona, USA.

At this auction event, RM Sotheby company will find a new owner for a 1968 Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman.

From the images provided by RM Sotheby, it can be seen that this 1968 Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman is complete and shiny like new.

This luxury car is painted with glossy black exterior and accompanied by elegant beige leather interior.

Moreover, the upcoming auctioned Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman also comes with a unique Sony TV console and Panasonic sound system stored in the central armrest.

In the past, the Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman was a more premium model than its predecessor, the current S-Class. The Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman was produced for a long time, from 1963-1981.

During 3 decades, Daimler Group only produced 2,677 Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman cars. Most of these cars belong to the standard wheelbase version. Only 428 Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman cars belong to the long wheelbase version.

In addition, there are only 304 Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman cars with long wheelbase and 4 doors instead of 6. Therefore, the upcoming auctioned 1968 Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman with 4 doors and extended wheelbase is considered rare and worth pursuing by collectors.

Even in the standard wheelbase version, the Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman weighs up to 3,334 kg. Compared to the current long wheelbase Rolls-Royce Phantom, the Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman is significantly heavier.

To cope with this weight, the Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman is equipped with a V8 engine with a capacity of 6.3 liters, producing a maximum power of 245 horsepower.

In addition, the Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman also features an air suspension system to provide a smooth and luxurious ride for passengers.

Currently, the starting price set by RM Sotheby for the former head of state car, Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman, is unknown.
