Mercedes wagon once owned by Michael Schumacher is up for sale
$130,000 (119,950 euros) isn’t how much you’d expect to drop on a 1998 Mercedes E 55 AMG wagon.
But when its list of previous owners includes 7-time Formula One World Champion Michael Schumacher, well, that changes things.
Schumacher was already a two-time champion when he bought the vehicle new in 1998. Since then, the car has racked up just 123,000 miles.
Registered in Switzerland, the car was first sold in July 1998 and is now for sale in Berlin. It comes with full service records, has had a recent inspection and is well maintained. It also has some neat features on the inside such as a sound system, heated front seats, automatic air conditioning and Designo leather upholstery. Under the hood, it features a 349-horsepower naturally aspirated 5.4-liter V8.
Michael Schumacher’s family continues to keep the German’s health conditions private following his skiing incident on Dec. 29, 2013.
