The body on the car is in beautiful condition and was extremely well maintained. The car is finished in its gorgeous original Mercedes color of Petrol Green and and has a gorgeous shine. The car is straight as an arrow and looks spectacular. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock and rust free as any collector car should be. The car is riding on the original 15" wheels with OEM Michelins that are still in good shape with only about 5k miles on them since new! The windshield is like new with no chips. The German Cloth soft top is still in great condition with clean clear windows and only one small pinky tip size pin hole. The hard top has good seals and the headliner is in awesome shape.
The interior is in great shape all around. The dash and door panels are clean for the age. The supple original leather seats are all in good condition and look very nice with no rips or ware lines, which shows the quality of leather used in this car. 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. 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. This interior is in immaculate condition.
The trunk compartment is clean enough to eat from. The spare tire compartment is clean as a whistle and the original spare tire is present. Original jack is in place and the tool kit is even still in the car.
Mechanically, this SL runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. It drives as good now as the day it rolled of the lot. 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 and has been well taken care of. Previous owner just had the oil changed and the car given a once over and its all ready to hit the road with the top dropped! I will put my personal stamp of approval on the mechanical excellence of the car. Car has a nice subtle rumble thanks to MagnaFlow Muffler and resonator. A bunch of recent receipts show work on all major systems. Front suspension has been completely gone through with new bushings and subframe kit. AC system has been worked on and hoses replaced. Cruise control and horn repaired, and a major service and overhaul of the transmission seals, bushings and mounts completed. This car is tight and right.
All in all, this is one nice SL that I have had the privilege of being associated with. It 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 like new classic convertible for a fraction of the cost of its original price. The car has a clean Arizona Title and a clean Carfax and Autocheck.
