Chance to own a true Mercedes Classic that is in great demand, and has great investment potential!
Up for sale is a MB 450 SEL 6.9 Euro Version (Euro headlight and bumpers).The car has 101225 on the odometer. I have the original title. I am selling this car and other cars in my collection because I am 71 years old and have developed Carpel tunnel. I can't use my hands to work on the cars anymore. This 450 SEL 6.9 as with my other cars were all runners up until a year ago, that's when I stopped working on them. The 6.9 is a complete car. It was running great a year ago. The care has lots of torque, but uses much gas (12 to 14 mpg). No problems with the motor or transmission. Mercedes Benz cars are made to last. All my runners always ran and performed great! The suspension was working great. The car will sit down if not used at least once a week. I bought the car some years ago and was going to have it painted (Original green paint is faded), seats and interior all original. Some cracks on the dash. Sunroof works. Electric windows work. Radio (Original) works. Lights work. As I stated before, I was going to have the car painted. Some rust on the rocker panels. All chrome. Great shape (Euro bumpers) intact. No rust on the actual upper body (See Photos).
