EURO EDITION, 5.0L V8 EFI, AUTO, LOADED

Description for Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 1984

VIN #WDB1070461A004460 But remember it is a Euro spec so you may not be able to search information via carfax

This car runs and drives and probably needs a tune up. I've been busy this year away in business and looks like the next year is going to even more hectic. It has a brand new hardtop and the very rare rectangular headlights. Apparently some kind of vacuum system put in only the best of this high end model. Heated seats and a nice sized back seat with more power than the 280sl,380sl,450sl, nd I believe the 560sl as well. Also the highly sought after chrome bumpers. I drive it when I can just how she is and with the top down it is wonderful for me to cruise around. The front end was redone before I bought it and the seals on the motor replaced as well as brakes and many things totaling at least 3k in parts and labor. New tires, ew battery and teminal and new dash coverI had alsobought the parts to replace most of the rust easily which you can see in the picture so that a body man can just cut and paste the new ones in. I was quoted only 5-6k to make this car tip top shape paint and interior work that needs done however I feel it may need a little more closer to the 8k range to address all mechanical and cosmetic issues. But as you can see I live in an apartment complex near my soon to be campus. I would do a lot of work and have nowhere to store it. Also the carpet was removed so it wouldn'twouldn't rust the floorboards out if it got wet while being stored.So I must cut my loses and let my baby go. My reserve is not set very high so don't be discouraged, ood luck bidding. Also you pick up or I'll help arrange shipment with you but only with a reputable company. I have revised this listing so it may come up correctly and please contact me with any questions before you bid. Thank you and good luck bidding!!!

Here's a luxury European hot rod that doesn't become available very often. This 1984 Mercedes-Benz SL500 has everything you come to love from the R107 convertible, nd it gets even better in this Euro-spec model.
Yes, ou read this right, t is the desirable 500SL! This model designation of the R107 Mercedes-Benzes were never officially sold over here, o they are a rare sight on our side of the Atlantic. It has the European bumpers that hug the front and rear of the car much better than the U.S.-spec models. These also ditch the black rubber for a more attractive chrome look. In fact, he bumpers join the bodyside brightwork for an attractive wraparound effect. You know this was the hottest SL around because it even came with a little rear spoiler. Of course as much as we talk about this being a performance car, here is also its unsurpassed luxury. The R107 was the go-to driver for celebrities, ignitaries, nd the wealthy because the sleek lines hid a full size interior, nd usable trunk, hat was perfect for any road trip.
Whether people see you on sunny days with the optionalgray leather interior, r even when the blue fabric top is up, he color adds a real sophisticated attitude to theblue exterior. The 500SL was one of the highest status symbols in Europe, nd so the features list is quite long. This includes modern conveniences such as air conditioning (with front and rear defrost), ower seats, ower windows, ower locks, ower steering, ruise control, nd the correct AM/FM/cassette stereo. It comes with both the removable hardtop and folding soft top. You might have noticed the rear seats with seatbelts. This is not an aftermarket kit, ut the more comfortable units that were factory options in Europe just another advantage
