This is a very nice example of a vintage “pagoda roof” Mercedes 560Sl. The engine is strong and the transmission shifts as it should, even downshifting for passing which is not always the case. With only 84,700 miles on a 27 year old car it is in very nice condition. Everything works except the clock and one interior light. Last month installed new rear brakes and the fronts have only a thousand miles. Also a front steering damper was replaced and full service with new oil and filters. The exterior is very clean including the hard top. The dark brown cloth soft top is new, I mean brand new having never experienced rain or even washing. The interior looks like it is a couple years old. The upgraded radio is a single CD with a USB port and works well. The tires are fine but are not new. Turn on the cruise and this car eats up miles like the Autobahn machine it was built to be. It is a 30 some year old design so a sports car it isn’t. But, if you are looking for an extremely nice example of a classic Mercedes SL that will turn heads everywhere it goes and rides as smooth as a big sedan, then this is a good purchase. The usual question is why sell it. Well, I have a wife, 4 cars, and my daughter+3 live with us and owns a minivan. We have space for 4 cars. Do the math.
