The body on the car is in pristine condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint is new in the last few years and is finished in the gorgeous Mercedes color of Code 387 Blue Metallic and was just stripped down and redone about a year ago. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as any life long California car should be. The car is riding original Mercedes
14" polished hubcaps and has brand new tires! The wheels and hubcaps were just beautifully restored with all 5 steel wheels stripped and repainted, and the hubcaps were straightened, polished, and repainted to match the new body color. All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in great shape. The soft top is new and in excellent condition, and has almost never been up. The hard top has good seals and the headliner is in awesome shape.
The interior is in great shape all around. The supple blue leather seats are all in very good condition and look very nice with no rips or ware lines, which shows the quality of leather used in this car. The dash, door panels, and console are all in very good original shape. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged. 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 upgraded Sony Bluetooth CD player. Music is crisp and clear and not overwhelming. The sound system definitely adds to the driving experience of this roadster. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should.
Mechanically, this SL runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. The V8 engine is surprisingly quick and responsive. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The car was always regularly serviced by Mercedes authorized dealers. The car has had thousand dollars and page after page of service in recent maintenance including all new brakes and rotors, all new engine, transmission, and sub-frame mounts, new fuel pumps, and its 75k tune up service completed. It's all ready to hit the road with the top dropped!
One really special thing about this gorgeous automobile is the large amount of original paperwork and documentation that come with it. How often do you come across these cars with all the original manual, service book, warrantee book, and original instruction cards. This car has everything. I dare you Mercedes collectors to find another 450 SL in this kind of condition with this kind of paperwork anywhere on the market. Its truly amazing.
The car will include 2 key, tools, original spare tire, top removal tool, and the maintenance books and owners manuals.
All in all, this is one of the cleanest and nicest SL's that I have had the privilege of being associated with. I truly feel it is one of the nicest ones on the market and I will put it next to any of the lower mileage examples and it will hold its own.
It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owner.
This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in this car. This is your chance to get a like new classic convertible for a fraction of the cost of its original price. The car has a clean California Title.
