Description

I bought the Benz through a German acquaintance living in the USA,

This American SL has the advantage of being equipped with a larger-displacement engine and having been used predominantly in a dry climate. The vehicle is registered and is in very good condition.
The color combination of Blue Metallic with gray interior was sold many times.

The accident-free vehicle was brought from New Jersey to Germany. Due to a defective flow distributor, the vehicle stood in a garage for a long time.

The paintwork had faded and was unsightly,

At a specialist classic-car workshop, the paint was sanded off, primed, filled and repainted in the original color shade 323 blue,

Paint thickness measurements confirm a professionally flawless execution.

The vehicle was first registered in the USA on 26.08.1982

The original Mercedes owner's manual, Carfax, as well as many original workshop receipts are available.

The folding roof, tires, lighting, speedometer, carpet flooring were renewed, all fluids, oils, etc. were replaced. A specialist workshop converted the vehicle for German registration; for the H registration plate, the original US bumpers were retained.

The odometer was converted to kilometers by a specialized company; the original mileage was converted to kilometers and certified.

The vehicle has a hardtop and original Mercedes-Benz wheels. This high-quality Mercedes 380 SL V8 is currently in TOP condition and can be driven for many more years.

An available GTÜ inspection report certifies a condition rating of 2+

I only drive the vehicle in good weather.

The cost of classic-car insurance and tax is

approx.500.00 €./ year

The vehicle turned 40 years old on 26.08.2022; signs of use are present.

Price is negotiable if applicable
