95 S420
New Member from Central Texas

Hello All,

My name is Justin and I am new to the this forum and Mercedes-Benz. I am about to inherit my grandfather's 95 S420 with about 100k miles and I have always loved that car since I was a child. My father currently has it and has maintained it as best as he can but it does need some work, specifically the front brake sensors need to replaced. I know my grandfather and my uncle had made some modifications on it including some brabus parts and I believe AMG parts as well but it could be just some badges. Once I have the vehicle, I will share some pictures and will be asking questions on the vehicle in this forum shortly.

Thank you all for all your knowledge and please forgive me for any dumb questions I will probably ask in the near future.

Welcome Justin. A picture of your new to you S420 would be nice. For questions about your vehicle, be sure to post them in the W140 section of this forum where owners of the same model of MB as you will be more than glad to help you.
