Seven Hills Motorcars is very proud to offer this low mileage 1985 Mercedes Benz 380SL in excellent condition with only 44,960 original miles. It looks nice, runs great, and is an awesome driver. We purchased this car out of Texas, where it spent its entire life. It has never seen salt or a harsh winter so it is exceptionally clean and totally rust free. The car was sold new at Ryan Motorcars in Fort Worth, TX. There are numerous receipts for maintenance over the years from the 1980's. All of these receipts also verify the low mileage. The market on this generation SL is absolutely red hot right now and this example is priced to sell. Very low mileage and original examples of the R107 Mercedes SL are exceptionally difficult to find and draw a huge premium in the current market. There is copy of the Autocheck report on this car pictured below. It is totally clean, shows no accident history, and verifies the low mileage. The low original mileage is also verified not only by the condition of the car, but also by the clear Ohio title, pictured below, showing the mileage as "Actual."
This Mercedes is verified as "numbers matching" meaning the engine in the car is the correct and original unit that was installed in the factory new. Very importantly this 380SL has the "vehicle data card" from the Mercedes factory, which is pictured below. It shows the original engine number to be "116962 12 001842." We have checked the engine and confirmed that same engine number stamped on the left side of the engine block. All of the paint and trim codes are also correct and match the vehicle data card and the data tag by the radiator. The maintenance book is pictured below showing many of the stamps from the Mercedes dealer for the scheduled maintenance.
This 380SL comes with both the soft-top and auxiliary hardtop. I have personally put about 25 miles on tis Mercedes and during that time it was flawlessly reliable and a pleasure to drive. This is an excellent opportunity to own a classic Mercedes that is ready to be used and enjoyed at an unbeatable value. One could easily buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price in years to come. This Mercedes is finished in the beautiful and highly desirable color combination of Champaign (473) over Tan interior (234) with a Dark Brown soft-top (746). This is the correct and original color scheme as verified by the codes on the vehicle data card pictured below. Please peruse all of the photos, video, and other information below to get a true sense of clean and nice this 560SL really is.
The car comes with a number of receipts from service and maintenance. Also included with the car are the original owners manual, metal plate with the original owners name and car information, books, tool roll complete with Mercedes wrenches and tools, Mercedes first aid kit, two convertible top wrenches, spare tire and rim, jack, maintenance booklet, Becker radio card, cruise control card, warranty booklet, climate control card, and miscellaneous other items from when the car was sold new, which are all pictured below.
As a side note, this Mercedes is not a dealer auction vehicle. We hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our classics come from owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give the vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the 560SL, just give us a call.
