No... only ONE was made of this model.

It really piques my curiosity as to how and why this transformation was done. I can't imagine any company making these parts which only leaves hundreds of hours of bodywork and fabricating to produce a car that is worth significantly less than a branded title E500. No shortage of dreamers in the car world. I have to give them credit for effort.

Same here, Drew! Soooo much cost and effort went into this build. How and why may remain a mystery.

This car is in the VIN database, with some extensive notes, but everything dates back from 2007. This was probably lost with the demise of 500Ecstasy. I vaguely remember this car on that site.

Thanks for adding this with photos. I updated the VIN database with this URL.

Here are the VIN database notes:

‘VH Tuning’ in Belgium became known for its conversion kits, most notably the W140→W220 transformation, as well as the R129→R230 (a rather unfortunate-looking mutant).


They also offered kits to convert the W124 with W210 and even W211 front ends.


p.s. I tend to believe that, already in the early 2000s, some 124.036 cars around the world were owned by rather influential gentlemen who paid substantial sums for “100% handmade” conversions using W210 elements. These creations appeared in places like Japan, South America, Russia and Germany — well before the VH Tuning kits became widely available.
In contrast I guess most of W210-inspired 124 Coupes and Cabrios were 'upgraded' with VH kits.

I kinda understand it but yea/what... it's similar to Porsche 996 conversations to 997
