MERCEDES 500 SEC EUROPEAN MODEL SEC COUPE

Description

Overall a very nice car with mostly highway mile, the top engine was rebuilt at 210000 miles and has been fine tuned for high speed the cooling system is impressive and the car never runs over 80 degrees , I have owned about 6 SECs including 2 560s and this is easily the fastest, the transmission was rebuilt around the same time by a top notch transmission specialist , the car has been lowered for better handlin, the paint is flawless high end and recen, the interior is clean with minimum wear on the leathe, the dashboard has visible sun damage and cracks . The tires suspension and brakes are goo, I would recommend installing new shock, heavy duty Bilsteins are great on these cars . I bought this car from the second owne, a wealthy car collector from Orange County who owned more than 20 SEC's among many other cars including a Mercedes Gullwing . This is a great daily driver with spee, looks and reliabilit, not a perfect showroom car but a great runne, engine and transmission are solid no leaks whatsoever . The car is registered in California and has a recent smog certificate . The european VIN cannot be registered through eBay so I used the vin from my 84 US model . This beautiful automobile is one of a kind and one of the best looking SEC's you'll see . The european models have more power and smaller lighter lower profile bumpers along with adjustable better looking headlights .
