Description for Mercedes-Benz 200-Series 1971
For sale is my beautiful 1971 Mercedes Benz 220 W115 sedan. Clean and clear title in my name and in hand. Registration also current. Original CA blue license plates from 1971 go with the car.Original owner bought it in the Santa Rosa/Napa area and it's been in NorCal it's whole life. Original owner took great care of it. It was parked in 2006 until recently when the original owner passed away. Car was then taken out of storage by a man who took it to a Mercedes repair shop in Sacramento where hoses and fluids were replaced to get it running again. He also installed brand new tires. He then sold the vehicle to me.
Four cylinder gasoline engine with 4 speed manual transmission. Engine and transmission work well, although it does leak a little bit of oil. Car has A/C and it does blow but Im not certain it blows cold. The turn signal lever doesnt always stay when you push it down/up to indicate a turn. Other than that, everything works (windows, doors, locks, horn, lights, etc). I have two keys for it, original manuals, tons of paperwork and maintenance records.
Exterior is chocolate brown and in great shape for its age. Original color. Does not appear to have ever been repainted. Small chips and dings here and there. Left rear bumper was pushed in a little bit at one time. Chrome is bright and clear. All glass is there and in great shape. Interior is peanut butter brown and in excellent shape. No rips or tears or holes in the interior. Headliner also perfect. This car has no rust anywhere, which is a major plus!
Everything about this car is original, except for the suspension. A bolt-on air suspension kit was installed. It is completely removable and the original springs go with the car so it can easily be returned to stock if desired. I would also be willing to remove the air ride and return it to stock if the right deal is made.
I also added a bluetooth receiver and two 6x9" speakers so you can play music thru your cell phone. I did it this way so that the original radio and dash did not have to be modified. This is also easily removable if desired.
Beautiful car, fun to drive, gets tons of attention.
