The iconic Mercedes-Benz, which for years was synonymous with the elegance and style of Mirtha Legrand , is now looking for a new owner. The family of the 98-year-old diva has decided to part with the classic vehicle that accompanied her on trips to Mar del Plata, theater performances, and gatherings with friends, but the reason behind this decision has caused surprise and controversy.
Journalist Juan Etchegoyen, on his program Mitre Live, revealed that Chiquita's historic Mercedes-Benz is officially for sale. "It's for sale for a particular reason, and you won't believe it when I tell you why," Etchegoyen stated, who immediately shared the reason: the money obtained will be used to settle the lawsuit filed by Marcelo Campos, Mirtha's former driver.

Campos, who worked for years in the service of the diva and drove each of her trips with professionalism, was dismissed in the midst of a scandal. The conflict led to a labor dispute that the Legrand family now seeks to solve by selling the vehicle that, for many, is almost a museum piece.
"I've been told that they don't want to tell Mirtha about this, but the decision has been made: sell the Mercedes and use that money to pay Campos," Etchegoyen reported. Apparently, the family prefers to keep the diva out of the details of the matter, but the sale of the car is a fact.
In the building where Mirtha resides, there are already two interested parties in acquiring the Mercedes-Benz, a car that undoubtedly carries a rich history and undeniable sentimental value. For years, this vehicle witnessed the most important moments in the host's life, from her trips to televised luncheons to intimate gatherings with friends from the artistic world.
The decision to part with the Mercedes-Benz marks a turning point for the Legrand family, which until now had kept the vehicle as a symbol of the diva. However, the need to solve the labor dispute with the former driver seems to have weighed more. Meanwhile, Mirtha's fans and the entertainment world are waiting to find out who will be the next owner of this car filled with history and glamour.
