Running/driving car. Strong and powerful engine (no smoke). Smooth transmission.Recent oil change, new battery.One of the engine belt pulleys is making asquealingnoise (maybe a belt itself?...) - thatwill need some attention.Flywheel seems to have lost a couple of teeth in the course of years... So, sometimes, rarely but it happens, one might have to turn the key two or three times in order to start the engine. Afterwards everything is fine.
First and original factory paint (its clear coat is fading).
Bamboo MB-Tex seats (the front on ones) are in good condition, the rear seat will need to be re-stuffed.
German square weave carpets are in excellent condition (driver's side foot rubber too).
Headliner is flawless.
The A/C works but it will need a re-charge.
All the chrome (bumpers) and aluminum trim are excellent.
All the glass is good.
All windows, lights, gauges, turn signals, horn and radio work the way they should. Power sunroof is a little bit hesitant.
Brakes are good, emergency brake too.
Tires are worn and should be replaced soon.
Undercarriage (floors and rocker panel areas) is showing first signs of rust and corrosion - nothing extreme, but it should be addressed in order to be prevented of going further.
Never in any type of accident.
Original books manuals are included (see picture # 24).
The NADA value of this car is MUCH greater than my asking price. Why?...Because my asking price is considering the repairs needed to have this car 100% again.
It is a beautiful car in a gorgeous color-combination. Great as an investment or simply as a first car of your 18-year old child. A reliable first car. And a SAFE one!Let us not forget: it is an S-Class!
This vehicle is only 41 years old.
Due to the age sold as-is.
$500 deposit due immediately, balance within the next 3 days via bank wire transfer, cashiers check or cash.
This is a WORLDWIDE sale. I can help organize the shipping to anywhere in the world.
