Vehicle Detail

THE PICTURES ON THIS LISTING ARE LARGE FILES AND IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME TO LOAD THEM. IF THIS HAPPENS, PLEASE LEAVE THE PAGE OPEN UNTIL YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THE PICTURES OF THE EXTERIOR, INTERIOR, WHEELS, TRUNK AND ENGINE COMPARTMENT. Were you looking for a classic Mercedes that you can drive daily? I’m very proud to present this 1982 Mercedes 380SL silver color with black interior. This is one of the nicest W107 380SL Daily Drivers that you will find anywhere. This is a 2 owner CA car that was purchased brand new in the San Francisco area and the first owner sold the car to me in 1996 and I have owned the car for 15 years. The car has a recently Rebuilt Transmission. It also has the Original Paint Job, recently new Interior, Soft Top and good tires mounted on the Original Mercedes Alloy Wheels. This 380 SL would make a great daily driver for a car collector. This is a rust free CA car that was garaged from Day One. I have many pictures below showing every inch of the exterior, interior, wheels, trunk and engine compartment. The car drives very well with a strong engine and has a smooth shifting transmission. It’s got lots of power and it is really unbelievable how quick this 29 year old classic car accelerates. This car was made to cruise down the autobahn and it drives like a champ. The car had no vibrations. Please take your time and enjoy the pictures I have posted. I have all the Service Records for this car from the Original Owner up to the last service this year. I also have the Original Window Sticker. Thank you for looking and good luck bidding! THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD AS-IS Please Read Below Before Bidding Terms and Conditions eBay auction is a contract between the buyer and the seller. I ask the winning bidder to honor the bid they place. The vehicle you buy will not be released until the balance of the purchased price is paid in full. The buyer has 7 days to pay the remaining balance in full. This will give the buyer enough time to order an inspection or inspect the vehicle in person. The purchase price does not include a warranty for this vehicle; therefore this vehicle will be sold AS-IS. eBay provides an FREE AUTOCHECK History Report for all vehicles listed on their website so that you review the history of the car you are interested in. Please contact me after the auction ends so that we can discuss payment and delivery of the vehicle. Payment Payment options are: Bank Wire Transfer or Cash in Person. Due to the high risk of fraud these are the only acceptable payment methods in order for me to release the vehicle and title. A Bank Wire Transfer will be confirmed by my banker before the vehicle is released. Due to the high risk of fraud, I have to collect the payment in full before releasing the vehicle and title and no exceptions will be made. Feedback eBay members with 0-10 feedbacks must contact me before bidding and if for some reason I don’t get an email or a phone contact within 24 hours of the time your bid was placed, I will retract your bid. If your payment is not received as required the vehicle will be relisted and a negative feedback will be left for the buyer and I will report a nonpayment to eBay. A dispute will be opened to so that I can get a refund of my eBay fees. Before You Leave A Feedback I would like to take a moment and let all my buyers know that I have enjoyed owning this classic and I really want all buyers to be happy with their purchase. Therefore I ask the buyer to make sure to leave feedback. If for some reason you are not happy with your purchase, please contact me and let’s discuss the issue before leaving me either a neutral or a negative feedback. My reputation and your feedback are very important to me and my eBay account, so I would like to work with you to solve any issues that may take place during the transaction.
