Even a quick look reveals a competitive market for the small percentage of top level condition cars. This particular SL is a perfect example of why eager buyers line up for a chance to experience one of the world's finest roadsters. The light beige metallic paint is superb, the body smooth and undamaged. Exterior bright work sparkles and the soft trim remains black, not sun faded. The leather interior is equally stunning and seems to have aged hardly at all. When you finally slip in and turn the key however, the amazing love and care this car has received since day one is evidenced by a Mercedes that starts instantly, shifts perfectly and is as powerful as it is good looking. Steering is laser straight, no pulling or vibrations and the brakes are strong and safe. Both tops come with this vehicle and are in spectacular condition except for a small tear you'll see in the pictures below were the top folds, everything works very well except for the clock. Simply put; no other SL roadster at this relatively low mileage has the charm or timeless quality of this well documented Mercedes-Benz. Bid with confidence knowing your prize, once seen in person, will be as amazing as you expected and probably even a little better. provenance/dates found 11-87 compliance label build date 1-26-88 Autohaus Brugger - Redwood City, California - pre-delivery inspection 9-2-88 Von Housen Motors - Sacramento - LOF, 1,000 mile inspection 5,275 9-6-89 Von Housen Motors - Sacramento - LOF, new brake fluid, 15,000 mile service 16,591 4-22-91 Fair Oaks Mercedes - Fair Oaks, California - LOF, 30,000 mile service 27,464 9-29-92 LOF, 37,500 mile service 30,876 3-27-95 California emissions - Sacramento 41,400 2-14-96 Ernie's - Orangevale, California - transmission service, front/rear brake pads 43,179 9-9-96 Ernie's - Orangevale, California - LOF, 45,000 mile service 46,090 3-26-97 California emissions - Auburn 46,487 4-1-97 California emissions - Auburn 46,540 8-19-98 California Emissions - Roseville 48,456 4-2-99 California DMV 54,485 4-14-99 Euro Motors - Auburn, California - LOF, 52,500 service 54,546 7-13-99 California DMV 8-10-00 LOF 55,378 3-5-02 LOF 56,134 3-6-03 Euro Motors - Auburn, California - LOF, 60,000 mile service 56,950 4-16-04 LOF 57,826 3-6-06 California emissions 59,287 5-8-06 LOF 59,472 1-2-07 Nevada emissions - Reno 60,040 1-10-07 Nevada DMV - Reno 2-12-07 LOF 11-26-07 Nevada DMV 1-11-08 Nevada DMV 4-12-08 LOF 60,857 9-14-09 Nevada DMV - Pahrump 11-15-09 new front rotors and pads 63,168 12-11-09 LOF 64,985 8-27-10 Nevada DMV 9-7-11 Nevada DMV - Pahrump 10-12-11 Nevada DMV - Pahrump 4-11-12 Carmax - Henderson 91,866 4-11-12 Viva Las Vegas Autos, Inc. - Boulder City, Nevada 92,032 4-18-12 A-Best Auto - Henderson, Nevada - valve cover gaskets, power steering line, rear brake rotors 92,081 5-3-12 current - Boulder City, Nevada 92,161 5.6 Liter SOHC V8 227 horsepower @ 4,750/279 ft-lb torque @ 3,250 RPM VIN Decode: WDBBA48D2JA079265 country W Germany manufacturer D Mercedes-Benz type B passenger car model or series B R107, SL class, 1971-89 body style A roadster, 2-door convertible model within series 48 560 SL restraint system D driver airbag, seatbelts, pretensioners check digit 2 matches per NHTSA model year J 1988 assembly plant A Sindelfingen, Germany sequential production number 079265 Compliance label with November, 1987 build date. codes 74 Palomino (prefix 2 = leather) 524 paint-work preservation for transport 240 outside temperature indicator 531 automatic, power antenna 262 shielded regulator and alternator cut-out 543 dual illuminated visor vanity mirrors 274A 2 = leather upholstery 551 anti-theft/anti-break-in warning system 74 = Palomino (Java?) 570 front folding armrest A = ?? 581 air conditioner, automatic climate control 440 tempomat cruise control 592 tinted glass, all around, rear defrost 441 Light Beige metallic exterior paint 639 634 = elimination of warning triangle 442 driver airbag ?? 636 = elimination of first aid box 461 instruments with miles and English legend 664 tires and/or chrome rims 494 California version 746 Dark Brown folding top fabric 506 heated outside mirrors, power passenger 808 change of model year (last digit denotes year) 519 radio - Mexico, Grand Prix, electronic, USA Under hood VIN stamp. 1-26-88 pre-delivery inspection and 1,000 mile service @ 5,275 miles. 15,000 mile service @ 16,591 and 30,000 miles service @ 27,464 miles Scheduled brake fluid replacement @ 16,591 miles.
