Here is a beautiful 1972 Mercedes-Benz 250C Coupe. This car is very special in several ways. It is a one family owned car which has lived in California its whole life. It also has all service records going back to 1972 when it was purchased new in Santa Cruz, CA. This car was delivered brand new to Stahl Motors Mercedes on June, 24th 1972. The car lived its entire life in the Santa Cruz area and was driven by the original owner until just a few years ago when she could no longer drive and her nephew did a beautiful cosmetic restoration on the car. The previous owner took extensive care of the car and always garaged it. This car was her pride and joy and always received the best care and service at authorized Mercedes shops. Don't miss your chance to own the nicest 250C offered on eBay in a long time! The following is a list of options as this 250C is currently equipped: -Original 2.5L 6CYL Engine (Numbers Match) -3 Speed Automatic Transmission -Power Windows -Power Door Locks -Fog Lamps -Sony Cassette Player -Like new Michelin Tires The body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on the car was just repainted in its original colors of Lower Code 423 Mocha Brown and Upper Code 181 Light Beige and is in very good condition. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as any well cared for garaged car should be, and has never been in any accidents. The car is riding on original steel Mercedes wheels and hubcaps with like new Michelin tires. The hubcaps just received a gorgeous full professional polish and match the original color. All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals are in great shape. Much of the chrome and trim has been restored or replaced with new trim from Mercedes. The car looks absolutely as nice as the day it rolled off the Mercedes lot. The interior is in like new condition all around. The dash and door panels are in very nice condition with nearly no ware. The supple tan seats are all in very good condition and look very nice with no rips or ware lines, which shows the quality of material used in this car. The two front seats were just fully restored with new covers from Mercedes and were just re-padded with correct materials. All wood grain is in excellent condition with no cracking. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged. The car has the custom fitted floor mats, which were always protecting the carpet. All dials and controls function as they should, power windows and antenna also are fully functional. The sound system is also very nice with the Sony sound system. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very clean and does have the original jack, the original spare tire and wheel! Also included is the original tool kit and original trunk mat in great condition. You can see how nice the trunk pan is on this car showing how well everything seals up. Mechanically, this 250C runs GREAT! I have owned nearly 20 70's era Mercedes vehicles, and this car blows the doors off all of them! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. It drives as good now as the day it rolled of the lot. The 2.5L engine is very quick and responsive. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at autobahn speeds above 90mph. The car was always regularly serviced as indicated by the fully stamped service book. The car will come with more that $16,000 in recent receipts.

All in all, this is one of the cleanest and nicest Mercedes that I have had the privilege of being associated with. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owner. This Mercedes is a fantastic car for the price and will please even the pickiest Mercedes collector. This is your chance to get an like new classic Mercedes for a fraction of the cost.
