My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next car or truck through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid as most answers can be found in at least one of those places. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction. Up for a NO RESERVE auction is a 1995 Mercedes-Benz SL320 with just 79k miles. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am a huge Mercedes-Benz fan. Among the Mercedes family, the R129 roadster is one of my favorites. I could literally write a book filled with reasons why I like them so much. For the sake of expedience, I won't go on and on about it. If you're looking at this car, you probably appreciate these as much as I do and we'll just leave it at that. I would rate the exterior of this SL320 to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for it's age and mileage. Although this is a low mileage example, it is still a classic car and lots can happen over 22 years. The first thing that strikes you about this car is the color combination. Older SL's are hard to find in single color as most of the early cars had two tone exteriors. The emrald green is an absolutely gorgeous color and the factory chrome wheels provide a beautiful contrast. The dark green finish has a mile deep shine and looks as smooth as glass. As with any older vehicle, please don't expect it to be perfect. There are bound to be a few flaws and imperfections here and there if you look closely enough. However, you'd be hard pressed to find anything worth complaining about on the exterior of this SL. The worst I could find are a few nick marks on the left door cladding, which are so small you probably won't be able to see them in the photos. The body looks nice and straight. The hood, doors and trunk all open and close easily. All of the cladding and trim is present and shows well. The factory hard top is included and looks to be in good condition. The factory soft top also appears to be in good condition. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The factory chrome wheels shine like mirrors and are wrapped in a matching set of Michelin Pilot Sports with average tread all around. Please take your time and check out each and every one of the 80 photos to see how exceptional this SL looks inside and out. Pride in ownership shows throughout this full sized roadster. I would also rate the interior of this SL320 to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for it's age and mileage. The tan interior contrasts nicely against the dark green interior. The door cards are clean and tight. The dash and headliner(s) are clean. The headliner to the hard roof sags a little, which is normal with age. The carpets are clean throughout the interior. A full set of factory floor mats are included. The leather seats are supple, comfortable and show virtually no wear. The wood veneers are in remarkable condition, which leads me to believe that this SL320 lived most of her life in a garage. Again, pride in ownership shows throughout this roadster. The power windows, mirrors, seats and central locks all appear to be working properly. All of the interior illumination also appears to be working properly, which is rare. In fact, I couldn't find a single thing that wasn't working properly. Even the hydraulically operated power convertible top works quietly and seamlessly. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. It's too cold to be able to personally verify whether or not the air conditioner is working effectively but, based on everything else I've seen on this car, I would be surprised if it didn't work. I can verify that the heater works well. The factory radio is also in good working condition. The factory CD changer is still in the trunk. The cargo area is clean and even still has the factory wind deflector stowed in it's proper place. Mechanically, this SL320 appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 3.2L inline six cylinder engine starts easily and runs smoothly. I didn't notice any leaks and the engine doesn't smoke. Her road manners are excellent. The suspension feels tight and well sorted. Steering and braking feel good, too. The big six cylinder engine keeps perfect temperature and excellent oil pressure at all times. There have been no idiot lights on during my road test. She makes good power and runs like a top. Driving a R129 is an absolute pleasure, and this car does not disappoint. These are among the most well designed and well built cars ever made. If these cars have a downside, I have yet to find it...and I've owned more than a dozen of these, spanning the last decade. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts properly with no issues. Out on the highway, she drives nice and straight with absolutely no complaints. I love these cars...especially the six cylinder ones, and here's why. When new, or nearly new, the V12 cars were bought by the likes of rappers, athletes and the like. Over time as they depreciate, most found their way into the hands of owners who I would describe as "budget pimps" who want to look like a boss but can't afford the maintenance of a $130k (in 90's money...$200k in todays money) car. The result is usually neglected cars that have more in back maintenance due than fair market value on the car. The V8 cars are bought by people who see the 320 as below them but can't afford the V12. These cars are bought for image and passed along the second something new and more shiny comes along. The 320's are usually bought by enthusiasts and folks who have most likely owned and driven Mercedes cars for decades and appreciate the pedigree of a roadster with a straight six under the hood. These cars tend to stay under the same ownership longer, because they are bought by folks who want the car for what it is and the driving experience rather than impressing the person at the valet. Because these cars are bought by enthusiasts with long term ownership in mind, they tend to be very well maintained. This car is a perfect example of why I have bought literally every SL320 I've had the chance to buy. I believe these will be the ones to appreciate in value over time. If you've been looking for the right SL to snatch up, this gorgeous SL320 deserves your serious consideration. It's the right color, right miles and everything is in order. I have no control over who will be the buyer of this car, but I hope she goes to a good home. I personally went back and forth for a while, deciding whether or not to sell this one or keep it for myself. This is the most complete and correct SL I've come across in a while. Please compare this to other SL's on the market and bid to own. Examples like this are getting harder and harder to find. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value of the vehicle and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyers request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle. About Liberty Auto Exchange: We offer a unique way of purchasing a vehicle. We sell vehicles to the public with NO RESERVE auction pricing. Most of the vehicles we sell are trade-ins at new car dealerships or high volume used dealerships in the area. We hand pick each of our vehicles based on quality, value and desirability. Basically...if I wouldnt drive it myself, Im not going to try to sell it to you. We give every vehicle a thorough test drive and a visual inspection before it is offered for sale. We strive to provide the most thorough and accurate description as possible within the scope of our ability. Please understand that we are not mechanics. The opinions contained within the written description should not be taken as a professional mechanics assessment and are not guaranteed. There is additional risk in purchasing a vehicle this way versus buying a vehicle from a retail dealership that has been fully serviced, reconditioned and inspected. We try to mitigate as much of that risk as possible for our customers...just keep in mind that most of our vehicles sell for significantly less than a similar vehicle would be priced on a retail lot. We offer warranties through CARS to help offset as much risk as possible. Please understand that some of the vehicles we sell are disqualified from warranty eligibility due to age, mileage, price or other factors established by CARS. This is out of our control. No amount shall be set aside or discounted if a vehicle does not qualify for coverage under the Terms & Conditions established by CARS. Please see each individual listing for Warranty Eligibility. We have sold over one thousand vehicles on eBay to happy new owners through NO RESERVE auctions and we aim to continue to do so. We are very proud of our feedback score and our many repeat buyers. If you have any questions about how we sell, our policies or questions about a specific vehicle, please send us a message. Vehicles ten model years old and older are exempt from odometer disclosure, this is a federal law. Mileage may be listed as "exempt" or "TMU" on titles for vehicles older than ten model years old. Should we have reason to believe that mileage listed for a vehicle is inaccurate, this will be disclosed within the written description provided for the vehicle regardless of the odometer status listed on the title. Terms and Conditions: Payment Options We accept the following payment methods: - Cash (in person) Vehicle Pickup & Shipping All shipping charges are buyer's responsibility. General Terms Please be sure to read the entire written description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. We go out of our way to provide the most detailed description we can provide within the scope of our abilities and offer 50-100 photos with each listing in order to be as transparent as possible. To ask us a question, please send a detailed message through eBays messenger service. This can be done by clicking the link that says "ask seller a question". Please wait to bid until you are completely comfortable doing so. By placing a bid, you assert that you have read and agree to our Terms & Conditions as well as eBays Terms & Conditions. You further assert that you completely understand all risks associated with purchasing a used vehicle and have exercised, to your satisfaction, your ability to conduct all needed research regarding this transaction.

This decision shall be made by the seller, at its sole discretion, and can be made at any time during the duration of the auction or after the auction has ended. The seller may, at its discretion, cancel any bid at any time and / or block specific members from bidding on current or future auctions.

This fee is considered due and payable, without demand, to Liberty Auto Exchange on the 8th day from the end of the auction.

Fees and Taxes The only fee we charge is the $149 Administrative Fee that is also disclosed in the first sentence of the written description. Because we sell with NO RESERVE, we have no way to control how much (if any) money we make per vehicle.
