I'm proud to offer a 1985 Mercedes euro 500sl convertible. This car is show quality with only 50k original miles on it. This car was owned by Paul Douglas for the last 7 years and was only used in parades once a year. It was stored in a climate controlled garage and sat next to his s65 wood and interior are in fabulous condition for a 29year old car. It has been repainted at some point in its life put quality of paint is phenomenal, the hard top is still original paint. I have all the work receipts from Paul Douglas. Pictures due not due do justice to the car, this is probably one of the best low mile examples of this rare car in the nation. I do have a car-fax for it and it has no issues. There is absolutely no rust anywhere on the car and never had any rust or rust repair work done. If you are not familiar 500sl was only made in Europe only a handful were ever imported here. They all went through extensive regulations to make them legal here and it was the only model that came with factory installed rear jump seats so you could have 4 passengers in the car. The 500sl has more hp and torque than the US based 560sl model and it is also geared differently for the autobahn. To the other US based models like the 380sl and the 450sl the car is not even comparable. It is the most desirable w107 convertible. Additionally the euro models have nice looking flush bumpers, this car does have US headlights on it right now to comply with US regulations when it was imported here, but it would be very easy to put original glass headlights with pneumatic adjustment that it is wired for and were originally on the car. This car is 100% ready to drive with everything working on it including AC, and cruise control and there is not a drop of oil underneath it. Also has hard top available. Don't miss a chance in a lifetime to own a part of history. This car will continue to grow in price over the years. There are only a handful w107 that are in this good of original condition left in the world. The car books out at over $27k by NADA, reserve is well bellow that. Please call me at 651-983-3592 with any questions or to set up a test drive. Thank you.
