Sold
1980 Mercedes Benz 450SL Roadster, 2 Tops, All Original, Upgraded Wheels, Gorgeous Leather
Here is an absolutely stunning Mercedes 450 SL in great condition inside and out. The
car was bought by original owner Ronald Foell of Newport Beach, CA from Jim Slemons Imports in 1980. At some point after 1997 the vehicle made it out to Arizona where it has resided ever since. The previous owner garaged the car and took great pride in keeping it in the best condition possible. It is rare to find these SL's with this kind of low mileage because once you drive this car you won't want to get out. Here is your chance to own the Mercedes flagship for a fraction of its original sticker cost.
The list of some of the equipment:
-4.5L V8 Engine
-Automatic Transmission
-Power Windows
-Power Door Locks
-New Black Soft Top
-Removable Hard Top
-Original Becker Mexico
-Ice Cold A/C
-Beautiful Original Light Beige Interior
-Beautiful Upgraded 15" 560SL Wheels w/ New BF Goodrich Tires
The body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on the car appears to be original in its factory color of Anthracite Grey and is in very nice condition and looks almost as good as the day in rolled of the lot. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is totally rust free solid. The car is riding on gorgeous15” 560SL wheels and performance radials. All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in great shape. The black soft top is Brand New, and has only been on the car for a couple months. The dark grey hard top has good seals and the headliner is in
awesome shape.
The interior is in great shape all around. The Leather seats are all in very good condition
and look absolutely as good as the day it was new which shows the quality of material used in this car. The
dash is crack free and the door panels and console are in great shape. The carpets are all very nice and have been professionally cleaned. All dials and controls function as they should; power windows and antenna also are fully functional. The sound system is also very nice with the original Becker Mexico still in place. The interior is topped off by a brand new set of Oem Mercedes floor mats. The trunk is clean and complete with correct mat, original jack. original tools, and original Michelin spare tire that has never touched the pavement.
Mechanically,
this SL runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. The V8
engine is surprisingly quick and responsive. Many Mercedes experts and mechanics stand behind the
4.5L as the best engine Mercedes ever made. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at autobahn speeds above 90mph. The most recent owner purchased this out of an estate and went through it from front to back, and it was fully reconditioned prior to sale. I also had it into my local Mercedes independent and he checked it
over and gave it the big thumbs up!
All in all, this is one very clean SL and has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in this car. This is your chance to get an almost new 450sl convertible for a fraction of the original cost and super well maintained. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, AZ!
