THIS HAS GOT TO BE ONE OF THE FINEST CONDITION ,ORIGINAL ,BABIED 380 SL'S YOU COULD EVER IMAGINE. THIS METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED SL HAS OBNLY 2 CALIFORNIA OWNERS SINCE NEW. THE SECOND OWNER LAST 17 YEARS. THE CAR SHOWS JUST ABOUT NO WEAR ANYEHERE ,AND IS LOOKING,FEELING,AND DRIVING LIKE A 2-3 YEAR OLD CAR.. IT IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING IN EVERY WAY ! IT COMES WITH ALL THE ORIGINAAL MERCEDES BOOKS AND RECORDS. IT HAS A PERFECT CALIFORNIA CARFAX HISTORY. THE CAR SPORTS THE ORIGINAL 3.8 LITRE V-8 WHICH BOASTS OF THE FACTORY ORIGINAL DUAL TIMING CHAINED ENGINE WHICH WAS STANDARD EQUIPMENT IN 1984-1985. THERE ARE NO MECHANICAL ISSUES WITH THE DRIVEABILITY WHATSOEVER.THER CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE NEW. NO SMOKING,LEAKING,OR OVERHEATING. SHIFTING AND STEERING ARE SUPERB IN EVERY RESPECT. SMOOTH AND CONFIDENT.IT HAS THE STANDARD UPGRADED MERCEDES CENTRA SYLED CHROMED WHEELS WITH THE STAR LOGOS .THE CHROME IS IMMACULATE. THE ONLY ADDITION THE FIRST OWNER MADE WAS THE REAL MERCEDES 3RD BRAKE LIGHT ON THE DECK LID. IT WAS DEALER INSTALLED. IF YOU WERE TO STAND RIGHT HERE NEXT TO THIS CAR,YOU WOULD GUESS THE MILES TO BE 30-40,000 . AS YOU WILL SEE THE SEATS,WHICH ARE REAL LEATHER,HAVE ALMOST NO USEAGE AND ORIGINAL POLISH FINISH.YOU JUST CAN'T FIND MANY 27 YEAR OLD CARS THAT WERE TAKEN SUCH WONDERFUL CARE OF BY ITS' LOVING 2 OWNERS.THE BEAUTIFUL,LUSTROUS GOLD PAINT IS MOSTLY ORIGINAL ,ANBD THERE IS NO RUST OR ACCIDENTS EVER.AND FINALLY,NO DASH CRACKING,AND IT IS THE ORIGINAL,KEPT INDOORS ,AS YOU CAN SEE . THE CARPETING IS SECOND TIO NONE ,AND IS SPOTLESS INSIDE..AND IN THE TRUNK.LOOKS LIKE THEY NEVER USED THE TRUNK .IT IS SPOTLESS ALSO. THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN RESTORED,JUST KEPT AFTER RELIGIOUSLY,BY 2 FANATICAL OWNERS .HARD TOP ,AND ALL SHINY TRIM, IS EXCEPTIONAL.THE ENGINE COMPARTMET IS CLEAN ENOUGH TO HAVE DINNER IN.THE CANVAS TOP IS THE ORIGINAL AND IS IN GOOD SHAPE,AND,THE WINDOWS ARE CLEAR.THERE ARE NO DISSAPOINTMENTS ON THIS CAR. THIS IS THE ONE YOU WERE HOPING TO FIND AFTER YOU EXHAUSTIVELY LOOKED AT OTHER SECOND BEST EXAMPLES. THIS COULD BE THE NICEST ORIGINAL AVAILIBLE TODAY.
