Hello, ou are viewing my NO RESERVE, 979, 80sl Mercedes (European model) with 82,088 miles. Euro Bumpers and Euro lights, .8 inline six, nd a rear seat!
This car has been garaged most of its life and it shows!Originallya southern car (no rust or saltexposure).
This Mercedes is in WONDERFUL, ery original condition, hat is well maintained. Paint (factory color is a metallicmedium red) is excellent with a great shine (there are a couple of chips and dings(nothing major).
I do not see any visible rust (very straight and solid).
Very clean underside with solid floors.
The interior is in excellent condition. The leather seats are in great/original condition, o rips or tears just some leather dye fading (nice patina). Dash is great, o cracks. The wood, oor panels, eadliner,carpet and sun-visorsare also in great original condition..
Mechanically the car is EXCELLENT!!!!!!! Runs (2.8 inline Euro sixcylinder), rives and shifts perfect (automatic transmission). No smoke, dles smooth and starts fast every time. The only thing that does not work at times is the radio.
I personally think that the euro 2.8 liter engine is one of the best, nd most fun high revving, ong lasting motors that MB has produced(I also own a euro 5.0 and a 3.5 v8 that I am comparing it to)
Everything works as it should. The heat blows hot and the air conditioner blows cold. Comes with two sets of wheels, he wire wheels that arecurrentlyon the car and a set of bundt wheels that will come withe the car, he tires are matching and are in average condition on both sets.This MB drives very smooth and straight at a 100mph. I would not hesitate to drive this car on a 2000 mile road trip.
The softtop and hardtop is in great condition.
This 280sl is in above average condition that is very dependable and well maintained.
The car is sold in "As Is Condition".
I do welcome and encourage presale inspections.
Also includes is the spare tire and owners manual.
