Seven Hills Motorcars is very proud to offer this very nice 1982 Mercedes Benz 380SL in excellent condition with only 92,465 original miles. It looks spectacular, runs great, and is an awesome driver. The market on the R107 SL is absolutely red hot right now and this example is priced to sell. Very low mileage and original examples of the R107 Mercedes SL are exceptionally difficult to find and draw a huge premium in the current market. The low original mileage is also verified not only by the condition of the car, but also by the clear Ohio title, pictured in this ad, showing the mileage as "Actual."

I have personally put about 20 miles on this Mercedes over the past month. During that time the car was flawlessly reliable with absolutely no issues and a pleasure to drive. This 380SL comes with both the soft-top and auxiliary hardtop. The car also comes with a some receipts from service and maintenance over the years, which total over $2,300. This is an excellent opportunity to own a classic Mercedes that is ready to be used and enjoyed at an unbeatable value. One could easily buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price in years to come. This Mercedes is finished in the absolutely beautiful and highly desirable color combination of White over Light Tan interior with a Dark Brown soft-top. Please peruse all of the photos, video, option codes, and other information in this ad to get a true sense of clean and nice this 380SL really is.

As a side note, this Mercedes is not a dealer auction vehicle. We hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our classics come from owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give the vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the 450SL, just give us a call.

Exterior

The White exterior is in excellent driver condition. As one can see in the photos, the paint has a brilliant gloss, deep shine, and smooth finish. Both doors open and shut nicely; it has that solid Mercedes touch and feels like a vault door closing. The original alloy wheels are in great shape with no curb rash. The tires are literally brand new with less than 10 miles on them and are correctly sized 205/70R14. The chrome and other bright-work look nice. There are no major imperfections that have been intentionally excluded from the photos. As one would expect from a paintjob with many years on it there are some very small blemishes around that are too tiny so show up in the photos, but nothing that is really noticeable from about five or ten feet away. There is a small ding on the left door, but as one can se in the photos it is not very noticeable. As one can see in the many photos of the underside, this 380SL is very clean underneath. We have also included specific photos of the rockers, lower front and rear quarter panels, and other areas on the car most prone to rust to show how nice it looks.

Interior

The Light Tan interior of the 380SL looks fantastic. The seats are in excellent condition with no tears, rips, or excessive wear. The seat is not overly worn at all in the typical are on the driver's bolster where the driver gets in and out. All of the gauges faces are crisp and the lenses are clear. The original door panels look wonderful and both door pulls are solid and in tact. The Dark Brown convertible soft-top is in good condition. The rear windows are not yellowed. There is one spot on the top, visible in the photos, near the right rear window. The dash is in great condition with no sun fading. This car has never been smoked in; there is no aroma of cigarettes what so ever and no burn marks. The trunk is very clean and nicely detailed with the original spare tire, and rim, jack.

The excellent condition of this original interior is a huge testament to the meticulous care and attention this Mercedes has received throughout its life.

Mechanical

This 380SL appears to be in very nice mechanical condition and it is ready to be enjoyed. As stated above I have personally put about 20 miles on the car with absolutely no issues. The engine starts right away every time and idles well. It is an exceptional driver that feels great on the road and at highway speeds. In the video one can observe the car accelerating on the highway up to about 70mph, shifting through all the gears, braking to a stoplight, and going through some curves. Please note that it runs great, there are no strange noises or vibrations, and the car performs quite nice overall. The brakes are responsive and do not pull to one side or the other. There is no blue smoke when starting or driving the car. It runs cool and does not overheat. The gauge shows that the engine makes great oil pressure. Also, the engine bay is clean, nicely detailed, and correct as one can see from the photos.

Please note in the video the dash warning lights working properly; they light up when the key is first turned on and then go off when the engine is started as they should. There are no "check engine" lights that stay on. The horn works as do the fog lights, headlights, brights, turn signals, interior lights, power windows, power antenna, power locks, indicators, dash gauges lights, wipers, and fan. The a/c works and blows cold. All of the gauges work; even the clock keeps time. This Mercedes is smooth and quick with the 3.8 liter V8 engine. Not enough can be said as to how much of a pleasure it is to drive this car, especially with the top down on a beautiful day.

Overall Condition

Overall, this 1982 380SL is in excellent condition and is a true bargain at our asking price. The market on for the R107 body style SL Mercedes is very strong right now, particularly for low mileage examples in excellent condition like this car. This Mercedes is a great value and will only appreciate over time. Someone could easily enjoy this vehicle for several years and sell it for more than the purchase price with minimal effort.

Thank you for looking and please do not hesitate to email or call with any questions.
