420 SEL and ABS brakes
 
Did the 420's come with ABS brakes or was it optional???

At least by '88 they did: http://www.mbusa.com/brand/container.jsp?/overview/overview_engine.jsp&yearModelCode=88_SEL420&class=88_S&rnav=0124568&subNav=overview&menu=2_3&spec=2

my 86 Euro 500 Se has them I think 87 was the first year for the American SEL's could well be wrong.....

Actually, model year '86 was the first year for the 420SEL in the US; the M-B website only has full specs back to '88, so I do not have official confirmation that the pre-'88 cars (i.e., '86 and '87 models)had ABS, but I would suspect they did.

look a couple of messages up for the link (that puts you into the 420SEL) -- once you're in the site you can maneuver around to other years and models

My 85 500SEL (US) has ABS, which was the precursor to the 420/560 engines in the states.
