Selling a rare low mileage 560 SEL with grey leather seats. This was my husband's car that he took very good care of for the last 5 years. However, he is now working abroad, so is not able to give it the same care that it is used to. We just got it detailed, and it looks like the paint is starting to chip on the top of the car. So he has decided to sell it to another Benz enthusiast to continue to preserve and care for it like it deserves. This car is a beauty in person and is always turning heads. People are always shocked at the year of the car because it's so clean and the paint still looks great. We always get compliments when we take it out, and so we are looking to sell it to someone who will continue to preserve this classic car. The engine is still strong. We just replaced the battery and new power steering pump. The front and back heated seats still heat up quickly and make for a really comfortable ride in the winter. Front and back seats are power seats and still work perfectly. As you can see from the pictures, one of the rims has a little bit of pitting, but the spare is a full chrome rim with no pitting, so you can just replace the pitting rim with the spare. Some things to consider: The sunroof sticks, so we don't open it. You can hear the motor when you try to use it, so it probably just needs to be cleaned. The back right window gets stuck on occasion. The Speedometer sticks as well, but it does not effect the odometer. The mileage is accurate. The hydrolic lift of the car leaks, so the car does not stay as elevated as it should, but does not sag. If you refill the hydraulic lift and it will lift the car. AC works, but needs more freon. *** We located in Baltimore, so be advised that pick up availability may be delayed depending on snow clean up.*** If you have any questions feel free to message. Happy Bidding!
