Prior Design Offers Mercedes-Benz SL Facelift Options


The newly facelifted Mercedes-Benz SL offers a much more aggressive design. What it also leaves are R230 chassis owners wishing they could revamp their front end to the new generation without forking over the cash for a whole new car. There have been several aftermarket manufacturers that are catering to that market, offering all new front ends – hood, fenders, headlights, front bumper – to convert their SL to match. Prior Design has put their bid in with one of the nicer and more complete kits on the market for those R230 owners looking to rejuvenate their car.



Mimicking the AMG Black Series, Prior Design's SL63 package is aggressive and offers no hint of subtlety to the conversion. Their version of the widebody isn't as aggressive as the AMG Black, offering a fine balance for the daily drivers that aren't looking at screaming for attention. Their demo car also sports a set of aggressively designed wheels that actually fit the overall theme of the car. We can't help but think that it wouldn't be as pretty of a sight if these wheels were on any other car.

History of Mercedes Benz W126

W126 is the bodycode given to the Mercedes-Benz S-class series, produced from 1979 until 1991. W126 sales were halted in 1992 for the US market. Mercedes-Benz South Africa continued producing them for some years, stopping in 1994.


The car was introduced at the IAA in Frankfurt on september 1979. Most people did not appreciate the design right away. It's appearance differed too much from the rest of the Mercedes fleet at that time. The objective of the design team, lead by Bruno Sacco, was to produce a car that was sleeker, lighter and faster as opposed to the old W116 S-class it was meant to replace. Now, over 20 years after it's first introduction, it is clear they succeeded in designing and building a true classic.


The W126 remained in production for over a decade and it's design still wasn't oldfashioned when production was halted in the early nineties.




The decision to give the W126 a more low-profile look than it's predecessor had been based on the fact that in the late seventies owning a big luxury car was considered self-indulgent and anti-social. The foreseen fuel shortages and rising fuel prices forced Mercedes-Benz to rethink their big-engine strategies and the 'Energy Program' was introduced. Although engine sizes were actually enlarged (the 3.5 liter engine became a 3.8 and the 4.5 became the 5.0) MB argued that the engine sizes were actually decreased because the 5.0 liter engine could replace the 6.9 engine and the 3.8 could replace the 4.5
