Offered for sale is a very clean, well taken care of, one owner S500 4Matic Sedan. Finished in timeless Black on Black, this car has always been serviced by a Mercedes dealership, garaged and driven carefully. The paint is completely original and is marred only by minor imperfections (nicks, rock chips, a soft ding here and there, etc.) each of which was too insignificant to show up in any of the pictures. As you can see, the car shows very well. The interior is equally as clean, showing only negligible wear throughout. The leather is soft and plush, free of tears, cracking or discoloration and the carpets, interior panels and headliner are all as new. As mentioned above, the car has always been fastidiously serviced by the Mercedes dealership and consequently the car runs flawlessly. Immediate start-up to consistent, quiet idle, followed by silky smooth shifting through each of the gears. With plenty of power, the car is a true joy to drive, whether just cruising around town or at speed on the highway. This is an excellent example at a price lower than Kelley Blue Book Wholesale; if you've been looking for a big, luxurious sedan, this is an excellent car for you.Please feel free to email me or give me a call at (805) 886-1823 if you have any additional questions or would be interested in purchasing.This is a consignment car for a local customer and can be viewed in the Santa Barbara area by advance appointment only. Winning the auction is not winning the right to come and see the car, it's agreeing to purchase the car. Please ask all questions and perform your due diligence BEFORE bidding.While I have a California dealer license, I’m not your typical dealer. I’ve always had an appreciation for classics and sports cars and have always bought and sold them to create a kind of very small revolving personal collection. Through this process I've been fortunate enough to meet many great friends in the car enthusiast world, one of whom is the owner of this Mercedes. I try to give accurate descriptions of the cars I’m selling, but I’m not an expert and I encourage and am happy to help facilitate personal or professional inspections. But please do so before bidding, as the alternative harms my ability to make sales with other interested parties who have done their proper due diligence before bidding.I am well versed in sales to foreign buyers and if necessary can help facilitate such a sale with recommendations for trusted companies.For U.S. buyers a 10% non-refundable deposit is required within 3 days of the auction's end, the balance to be paid within 7 days of the auction's end. Foreign buyers must pay in full within 7 business days of auction’s end. Buyer is responsible for shipping, however we'd be more than happy to help with recommendations and arrangements. The car is listed locally and we reserve the right to end the auction at any time should it sell prior to auction's end. All sales are as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied. The above description offers full disclosure to the best of our knowledge, however we cannot warranty these disclosures as fact and encourage personal or professional inspection before bidding on the car. Thanks for your interest.
