The MERCEDES-BENZ S CLASS (2009-14) S500L 4DR SALOON LWB 4.7 BLUEEFFICIENCY SS 435 EU5 7G-T AUTO is a long-wheelbase luxury saloon, built for comfort and presence rather than city-car practicality. In the UK used-car market, it sits among flagship executive cars, offering generous rear-seat space and a more chauffeur-friendly feel than a typical family saloon. Mycarcheck.com recorded 111 look-ups across 46 distinct VINs, a useful sample of interest in this rare, high-end version. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £11,200, average recorded mileage of 77,000 and around 7,000 miles driven annually; owners averaged about three previous keepers per car in the data. The S500L suits buyers wanting a refined long-distance car, executives or families prioritising a spacious, quiet rear cabin. Its size and running costs are less ideal in town. V8 performance and limousine-like comfort set it apart from the BMW 7 Series and Audi A8, with rare, imposing appeal.
