This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION !!!
Welcome to Elegant Motorcars. We are not a 'mainstream' dealer offering average cars. We specialize in only the finest examples available. Thank you for the opportunity to earn your business. If you win the auction, come here for the car, and for any reason you are not 100% satisfied we will return 100% of your deposit, no questions asked. We understand the anxiety of purchasing a car without seeing it (We have been on both ends of these transactions many times). You'll see we have earned 100% Ebay positive feedback, so please bid with confidence.
As you may know, we are typically a Porsche and Ferrari operation, however we came across this exceptional 560SL, and could not pass it up. The values of these cars are on a SHARP RISE; get a clean low mile example while you still can. Historically the 2 seat Mercedes roadsters are always increasing in demand. They are supremely well made, solid, thoughtfully engineered German cars. Not many remaining in this condition!
We ran this car thru our shop and the following services were completed (And I have been driving it personally for the last few months):
- 4 new tires
- new front brake rotors and pads
- new rear brake rotors and pads
- 8 new spark plugs
- new radiator
- all engine fluids and filters
- transmission filter and fluid
- driveshaft center support bearing
- all front inner and outer tie rods
- new Hella power antenna
- new Bosch wipers
- New battery
- Air conditioning service (Converted to R134)
This is a very, very clean, minimal wear 560SL. It is obvious it was garage kept and well cared for. Even the blue top is ORIGINAL and in outstanding condition.
NO RUST. Strong engine and gear box. Cold AC.
The white paint and navy blue leather are a really nice combo on these classic 2 seaters. This is the last of the R107 class cars, and many feel this is the best car, 1989 with the 5.6 liter V8 engine.
Have all manuals, factory tool kit complete, and 4 or 5 keys, hard top included.
Few items to note:
- Windshield has a small scratch (apparently from the wiper arm/bad wiper at some point)
- There are 3 small scratches (touched up) on the rear truck lid (most likely from hardtop install/removal at one point). car retains its original paint.
