Reluctantly selling my PRIZED 1987 MERCEDES 300SDL - wifey says I've got too many toys. 4 dr Sedan - Auto, Air, Sun Roof, Air Bag, Anti Lock Brakes, HeadBacks, Orig. First Aid, Owners Manual. Just passed it's last state inspection with flying colors. Bought this awesome California Car a couple of years back for 12k, had it trailer shipped to the East Coast for 2k enjoyed and loved it once in a while in warm weather only. Never in the rain or snow. Had timing chain replaced less than 2000 miles ago and other maintenance work for 3k, has new battery, new wheels and new michelins on all 4. You get the old 4 wheels and tires as well, not pictured. This was my garage queen. THERE IS NO RUST. This car RUNS BUTTER SMOOTH. IT NEEDS NOTHING. I wanted to keep this car for life, now it's ready to be enjoyed and loved at least another 200 k miles. It will cruise all day at 75mph. It gets 29-30 mpg on the highway, 27-28 in town. From enthusiast site: The MBZ 300 sdl was used routinely by state leaders and sold for $47,000.00 in 1987 - loads of money then, testament to the excquisite quality of the car. MBZ enthuziasts know this is the last stretch limo with great engine and tranny, that was not plagued by the frequent failures of the 350 sdl and later models. This particular 300 SDL Benz is the stretch model, it has more space and room inside than other models. Still, it is Not as long as the average mini van! If you do any ride share commuting, your riders will absolutely love this car. If you have family to cart around they will be in the lap of luxury. In addition you may not be aware of the Patented front end steering of a Mercedes; they have a better turning radius than most other cars! A Mercedes Benz boasts several features that are still unmatched in today's new automobiles. This car had the first safety features like head restraint rests in the back, anti-lock braking, Air bag, un-paralleled climate controls, patented steering, and more. Of all the cars I've had, this one really feels like a hand built luxury automobile in every way. I am really grateful to have experienced a top of the line Mercedes. It has been very cool. Speaking of cool or warmth, just ask anyone about the Mercedes Climate Control Unit. It is unbeatable. Extremely reliable, gas saver, extremely pleasureabe to drive awesome looking car built in Germany - see photos. See and hear her purr in a youtube walkaround youtube.com/watch?v=PSI52ZoZqPU.
