Vehicle Detail
Phenomenal condition 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280SL with only 81,219 original miles but totally restored to better than brand new condition 2 years ago and less than 2,000 miles ago. Starting with an extremely nice original car, the restoration included every aspect; from a professional engine rebuild to a down-to-bare-metal respray to the rebuilding of the original Becker Europa AM/FM radio. The color combination of Ivory exterior with Bamboo interior is classic Mercedes and new Michelins were installed at completion. Starts right up and settles into a smooth quiet idle. Everything works properly and the car drives perfectly; no issues, no rattles, no squeaks. Pulls beautifully through the rev range and cruises quietly at freeway speeds. Investment grade car that doubles as a lovely car for special events and special occasions. 280SLs have been rapidly appreciating in value, have doubled in the past 4 years, and say "class" like few sports cars. Beautiful and truly flawless.
