Boris Yeltsin's S-Class limo went on sale in Moscow on Sunday, and owner Alexander Pullman hopes to rake in 34 million roubles, or about $570,000 from the deal. Only 27 units of this model have ever been produced by iconic German automaker Mercedez-Benz, and each one was manufactured for an individual client. This particular vehicle is believed to have been crafted for recently deceased former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, who then insisted on giving the armoured limo to Boris Yeltsin as a present.
