THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this 1989 560SL is in good99.99% RUST-FREE VERY ORIGINAL CONDITION overall with a decent overall shine to the paint finish with much clearcoat failure on the top surfaces along with various nicks, scratches and a bit of curb rash on the wheels. Overall this is a nice driver-quality classic as it is or a great candidate for a paint freshening or full restoration. The expression..."it's only original once" is quite applicable here!

THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos, the interior of this classic Benz is in quite good VERY ORIGINAL CONDITION overall with working speedometer and odometer, working electric windows as well as lights, blinkers, heater and gauges.There is some light wear inside this car most notably on the driver seat side panel, the stereo does not want to power up and the ac is not currently blowing cold. Overall this is still one original cockpit!

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This 1989 Mercedes starts easily and RUNS VERY WELL with great power and acceleration, smooth shifting automatic transmission, straight secure braking and VERY solid rattle-free suspension and steering and nice tracking down the road. Overall this is one very solid and still stately cruiser!Check out the test drive video here:https://youtu.be/HgCkQawQ5Zs
