MERCEDES BENZ 450SL- IMMACULATE ORIGINAL CONDITION-LOW MILES

Description for Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 1980

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THE BEST 450SL IN THE COUNTRY. THIS IS IT. I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM THE ORIGINAL FEMALE OWNERS SON IN 2008 FOR MY WIFE. AT THE TIME. THE CAR HAD 46. 00 MILES ON IT. MY WIFE PASSED AWAY IN 2010 AND I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR VERY LITTLE SINCE THEN. MILEAGE IS NOW 50. 50. THE CAR IS FOR SALE AS I HAVE TWO OTHER VEHICLES AND RARELY DRIVE THE MERCEDES. THE CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN SERVICED BY MERCEDES DEALERS AND EVERYTHING WORKS (INCLUDING THE CLOCK) EXCEPT THE CRUISE CONTROL. SINCE MY WIFE RARELY DROVE THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY. I NEVER BOTHERED TO HAVE IT FIXED. THERE IS NOT A SPECK OF RUST ON THE CAR AS IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN KEPT IN A HEATED GARAGE BY BOTH OWNERS AND NEVER DRIVEN IN THE WINTER. IT HAS NEVER BEEN DAMAGED AND THE BODY IS CLEAN AND STRAIGHT. THE PAINT AND CHROME ARE FLAWLESS AS ARE THE INTERIOR AND SEATS. TIRES ARE MICHELIN AND HAVE VERY LITTLE WEAR. INCLUDED WITH THE CAR ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUAL AND DOCUMENTATION. SERVICE AND PARTS MANUALS AND ORIGINAL SALES LITERATURE AND BROCHURES FROM 1980. THE CAR HAS A HARDTOP AS SHOWN IN THE PICTURES WITH A STAND TO STORE IT AND AN ORIGINAL MERCEDES CAR COVER. ORIGINAL TOOLS ARE INTACT AND HAVE NEVER BEEN USED. ON THE ROAD. THE CAR IS SOLID WITH NO SQUEAKS OR VIBRATION AND DOES NOT DRIFT. THE BRAKES ARE DISC ON ALL FOUR WHEELS AND VERY EFFECTIVE. THE DOORS CLOSE LIKE A BANK VAULT. YOU CAN BUY THESE CARS FOR LESS BUT YOU ONLY GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. MOST OF THEM HAVE HIGH MILEAGE AND HAVE MECHANICAL AND/OR BODY ISSUES. YOU CAN GET IN THIS CAR AND DRIVE IT ANY DISTANCE WITHOUT RESERVATION. OTHER THAN THE CRUISE CONTROL. I WILL GUARANTEE THE CARS ENGINE MECHANICALLY AND DRIVE TRAIN FOR 1. 00 MILES OR THIRTY DAYS ON A 50/50 BASIS. IF YOU TALK TO ANYBODY THAT KNOWS THESE CARS. THEY WILL TELL YOU THAT ONE OF THE ORIGINAL PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR WAS THE AIR CONDITIONING/HEATER SERVO. THAT UNIT ON THE CAR HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH AN ELECTRONIC SERVO AND BOTH THE A/C AND HEATER WORK FINE. THE 450'S WERE BUILT FROM THE EARLY 1970'S THRU 1980; THUS. THIS CAR HAS ALL THE UPGRADES AND MODIFICATIONS. IN 1981. MERCEDES DOWNGRADED THE ENGINE TO 380 WHILE KEEPING THE SAME FRAME AND BODYWORK AS THE 450 AND THE 380'S HAVE A REPUTATION AS BEING SERIOUSLY UNDERPOWERED. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS ANYTHING ABOUT THE CAR INCLUDING AN OFFER. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO GIVE ME A CALL AT 913 897-3422. I LIVE IN OLATHE. KS. A SUBURB OF KANSAS CITY. WHERE ELSE CAN YOU FIND A BEAUTIFUL CONVERTIBLE IN THIS CONDITION WITH CLASSIC DESIGN FOR LESS THAN $20. 00 ? YOU CAN'T.
