1987 Mercedes Benz 420 SEL - this has been our family car for the last 28 years. It has been garaged and pampered, but is not perfect. High miles, but the engine has been rebuilt as well as the transmission. The car boasts a newer paint job and absoloutly NO RUST. The car also has chrome Mercedes wheels on Continental tires.
PROSNew brakes and rotors (front and rear)New plugs, distributor cap, ignition rotorNew injector sealsNew front hub seals, and new calipersThrottle linkage repaired and servicedNew front wheel bearingsCharged ACNew BatteryOil changed and new air filter(3) leather panels replaced on back seat - front seats are power and they workOriginal Mercedes Benz tool kit, Original Mercedes Benz first aid kitAll original manuals and tagsClock works - radio works - power antenna worksNo engine lights onNo rips or tears - dash is covered with a replacement dash cover, driver seat on side is showing signs of wear - orginal carpeting still looks good, interior looks very good
CONSRear windows are non-functioning (think it's the motors)Cruise control doesn't work (has not worked since engine rebuild)AC works off and onCirculating fan squeaks when car is first started (probably needs replaced)Idle adjustment is still not right - does not affect cars performance, but when at idle seems a bit rough (however it doesn't stall)
Transmission rebuild cost $3100 - engine rebuild cost $7100 - paint $2000
I am trying to downsize - have another Mercedes that is newer so don't need two.....only drove this car 250 miles last summer - don't drive in rain or winter (always garaged)This car has never let me down - never stranded me on side of road - plenty of power - and looks awesome.
Price reflects certainly not what I have put into the car - but the year and mileage which is excessive - it can be insured now as a classic which is a huge savings. The SEL model was the largest model for the year for the Mercedes - the back seat area is expansive (we have always called it our airport car) - plenty of room to stretch out. Trunk is fabulous and also very large.
Not going to pay for shipping but will make it available should you need to ship it. Cash or paypal only. Clear title.
