This is a great looking and driving 380SL with low miles. Purchased from an estate in Cincinnati, H last year, t is obvious by looking at this car that it has been well cared for all its life. Very low miles, his car looks and feels like the 42,000 mile car that it is.

Exterior is Manila Beige. Going over the car with a paint meter reveals that it was repainted in its correct color at some point. It is a very high quality paint job and the paint meter was the only way I could tell it had been painted for sure... only upon very close inspection could I tell the car had been repainted. There is no evidence of accident damage or rust repair anywhere on the car. Paint meter readings were even on every panel revealing no body filler / bondo. This is a gorgeous, traight example of a 380SL. There are only a few minor rock chips on the hood and front fenders, s you would expect from regular driving, ut they are minimal. Chrome is good all around the car as are the plastic pieces, umper ends, ver riders, tc. They are dark black, ot sub bleached like so many other, igh mile examples. The soft top was replaced last Summer with a GAHH unit, t is the correct dark brown color. There is no rust or evidence of any rust repair on this car.

Interior is tan MB tex. This car has the rear kinder seat, ith seat belts, here two children could ride. The upholstery looks original and is in very nice condition, t shows minimal wear on the outboard driver's seat bolster. The original carpets are clean and supple, hey have had protective floor mats over them, robably since new. The car retains its original Becker radio. The wood trim in this car is in very nice condition with only one small crack. The dash is in great condition, o shrinkage around the edges or cracking.

Mechanically the car performs extremely well. The steering and suspension is tight, t shifts through the gears smoothly when accelerating and it shifts into reverse smoothly (no 'clunking' into gear like on so many worn out examples). Several thousand dollars have been spent on the car over the past year or so on routine maintenance items. Some of those things include:- New fuel accumulator- New left and right tie rods- Power steering fluid flushed and refilled- Cooling system flushed and refilled- New front brake pads- Lube, il, ilter- Replaced both rear sway bar links- Brake fluid flushed and refilled

This car is ready to drive and enjoy!
