1982 Mercedes 380SL, 111,000 Miles, $14,700 Best offer.
An outstanding year for the 380SL Model; Clean, original, unmolested car: I purchased this car from the second owner, who was selling it because he was taking care of his elderly mother and did not have the time to drive and enjoy it any longer. The car has always been looked after by professional Mercedes mechanics, and has been garaged and well cared for its entire life. The latest maintenance to the car includes a new fuel pump, fuel hoses and filter. All Fluids changed (brake, antifreeze, transmission, and differential). Idles smooth, accelerates without hesitation, shifting with ease through every gear. It has 4 like new tires and new battery. The AC was retrofitted to the new R134a refrigerant and works great. This 380SL has the duel row timing chain; you can almost guarantee the car will give you hundreds of thousands of trouble free miles. The paint and body are flawless, shiny and clean; everything appears to be original. There is no rust or dents on the car; no signs of previous body damage. It has a clean Car Fax, indicating a papered and respected life. The exterior color is red with a light Palomino/Saddle interior. The interior is in excellent like new condition, with just a little bit of normal wear on the lower portion of the driver’s seat back bolster, almost unnoticeable, but not perfect. The wood is absolutely beautiful and perfect, you can see deep into it with no scratches or cracks! The dash is crack free. The Heat and A/C work very well, as do all the mechanicals on the car. The top is new Mercedes in black; the windows are clear and crack free. The sound system is an upgraded CD radio and it works perfectly, including the original electric antenna. The trunk is equally clean, like new; no blemishes on the carpets or the trim, no stains or smells it’s like nothing was ever in there. The spare tire is in the trunk and appears to have never been on the ground! Car also has the original color matching hardtop in great shape.
Car has original owner’s manuals, all factory literature for the options, the original hang tags it would have on it in the dealer showroom, warranty booklets and the original MB metal data-plate plus the original MB First Aid kit! It doesn’t get much better than this! Car is registered in my name with Clean NJ title.
