The Landaulet versions were usually ordered in muted colours to match the official nature of their intended functions. But not in the case of this model, which combines an unusual metallic beige with dark red-brow. It must have become  one of the most photographed Mercedes-Benz 600s in the world. The original vehicle was temporarily owned by racing driver Didier Pironi. As was common in the US, the 600 limousine was equipped with a TV set, recognizable by the large antenna on the rear lid. The model comes with a fixed folded softtop without function.
