[W126 Coupe] Handbook

[Dawid Loubser]

Hi Jack,

I don't have one for sale (I guess you better register a "favourite  
search" on eBay for
that one) but I just thought I'd tell you that there is, in fact,  
only one owners handbook that
covers all 420/500/560 SE/SEL/SEC models. However, they did bring out  
a new one to cover the post 1986
models, but the 420SEC only came out in 1986, so it should cover you.

The 420SEC is very rare, I've never seen one in South Africa. (then  
again, so are most
post-1986 models) - by far the most common around here are pre-1986  
380SEC and 500SEC.
(most easily spotted by their smaller, "ribbed" lower side panels and  
smaller bumpers)

1990 560SEC
