Mercedes-Benz W126 S-Class Car Chase Jump 

Note to viewers: I have seen this video stolen and reposted several times on social media without credit (some users have even added their own watermarks on top of it). Please give me credit if you plan to repost this to your own account. My account is @shervinsgarage on Instagram. This is my own edit (I removed the scenes with Jim Belushi, I color-graded the footage, and I added the music on top). Reposting without credit is a scumbag move.

So many movies in the 90s had W126s being hooned around. It only made sense that when I was finally the owner of a 91 560SEL I did plenty donuts. For a big car it’s pretty nimble.

That's why this car is a barnfind.

That was typical of "gray-market" Benzes in the '80s. The lights and instrument cluster were changed to American spec, because that was needed to pass inspection in many states, but the bumpers were not changed.

New Mercedes can never compare to these tough as nails cars. That’s why you still see these driving around after 40-50 years especially the diesels which my folks have had plenty off. Twin turbo my ass! Give me an 85 300SD! Tell if you’ll still see a W222 rolling around in 30 years. Probably not. I love these old cars.

I used to own an identical '83 Benz. |t was a diesel and a bit of a rust bucket but for $500 it was the best "beater" I've ever had. They are really built like tanks.

that car is beautiful 😎

Classic old Mercedes. Nice to see them driven like that. The way a car should be driven. Wish there were more professional drivers out on the roads like this bloke who can really drive a car ! A classic scene from a classic 1980s movie too ! Cool !

Considering how the bumper bit the ground in the jump - you can see it's bent up, and a gap appears between the hood and headlight, I bet the car was junked after the film. I just noticed - It doesn't have a passenger side mirror!

Franky goes to Hollywood!

That driver was on point ! I enjoy seeing that Benz work out like that, because they can do it !

I love this video so much i watch it over and over .Thanks for posting to me

Perfect combo Benz W126 and Frankie Goes To Hollywood 😍😍😍😍😍. Best regards from France

Scenes from "K-9" movie, with James Belushi

the most beautiful Mercedes of all time !!!

Now thats a quality car. I bet on a modern SUV the plastic bumpers would have fallen right off.

Maybe they used an euro modell because the engine is much more powerful as the US versions which might come handy for a car chase scene. perhaps even a pre energy concept car from 1980. these models were on a totally different level in respect of reving and agility as prefacelift models after 1981 and accelerated even better than a facelift 560

A 500SE that someone ordered headlight wipers on but not the passenger mirror. Any W126 without a passenger mirror is not common since most were ordered with one and it was made standard in the later years of production.

Euro spec Mercedes s-class cars typically had velour or leather, I believe. MB-tex was typical in the north American market.

Perfect edit and soundtrack!

The music goes wonderfully well with the video. Thank you for the quality of work.

It does not buckle like Anerican saloons of the era...

I love this actors; W126 and E38 (007)

No. I am not saying we should all drive on the road like this. What I mean is as an enthusiastic fanatic the Mercedes is a nice car. In this film a professional stunt driver is extracting its performance in a way which is very pleasing at least in my eyes. The average car driver is well average. Just average. Every day I see on our roads a very poor driving standard out there in the general community. This is very sad. It deeply saddens me. I like this film but more to the point watching the person driving this car so cleverly. Yes he crashed into the barn at the end but it was a deliberate stunt. Thus magnificent machine has a driver worthy of the name behind the wheel. A real proper well trained driver.

Those Germans really know how to build a car don't they ? We must give credit where credit is due. I wish I could buy a car like the Mercedes but I can't afford it damn........

My dad still drives his 1994 C180 which has 2 million km on it.

Those are fun hills above downtown San Diego.

0:07 I love to hoon my w126 around.

500se (Euro) market car. Nice.

Porque os carros alemães nunca aparecem nos filmes de Hollywood?

A real Mercedes, do it that with a 2023 model and all the fucking electronics blow ap in two minutes

Mine has the same colour that's crazy 😄

Soundtrack from VICE CITY🤩🔥❤️‍🔥 nostalgic...

One of The All Time Goats

Like a tank But seems like 1982-83 380Se or 300se

When Mercedes Benz used to mean quality. Now they compete with Toyotas, Nissans and Hyundai's 😞😞🤷. They use to build them like tanks.

I had a 1988 300e = best car ever!

I wish the average motorist had better training. This driver here is very good. Great driving. Great.

Driver is marvellous

You killed my brudda 😂

The Class... ...The Motor!!! ❤❤❤🌟⭐💫 ❤❤❤💪❤👍

I’m guessin that some modifications to the suspension were made for these scenes, but I’m bettin not many. I love too that the continuity is spot on, Car never “changes” throughout 👍🏻

0:018 if you jump this long and high any car would not drive anymore. And your back would break like a twig.

W126 😎👍

Tank

Shame to destroy such a beautiful car.

Perfect👍That could be me!😎

Vice city in real life then

560 sec is the best for chasing...

これはK-9ですね？ベンツ運転しているプロドライバー？さすが！日本では出来ませんね💦

Can't wait to do that in my 280s

0:06 what car is that in the garage?

I cant imagin what went thru their heads when they said, oh its the 80s, we still dont need a right side mirror with all that trafic on the road. Not to mention that it looks ugly unsymetric.

I've never personally seen a 500se. I've owned several 420sel cars, though. Any love for those?

I don't think my W126 would have stood up to such punishment, sometimes it struggled just to get me to work.

I like the car but I watch the movie for the German Shepherd
