Description:
1988 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
According to Haggerty (the valuation and collector car people), the following valuation applies to this super clean 1988 560SL. This vehicle is easily classified as "Good" bordering on low end "Excellent". So, technically, it is a vehicle that could be brought to Concours condition if desired.Using the Haggerty condition definitions, this vehicle is "Good" and with very little effort it could be worthy to show. It's a very clean special occasion car or local show car. Perhaps too clean to be a daily driver.
Current Values (per Haggerty) as found with simple internet search.
- #1 Concours$75,700 Condition #1 vehicles are the best in the world. The visual image is of the best vehicle, in the right colors, driving onto the lawn at the finest concours. Perfectly clean, the vehicle has been groomed down to the tire treads. Painted and chromed surfaces are mirror-like. Dust and dirt are banned, and materials used are correct and superbly fitted. The one word description for #1 vehicles is "concours."
- #2 Excellent$46,300 #2 vehicles could win a local or regional show. They can be former #1 vehicles that have been driven or have aged. Seasoned observers will have to look closely for flaws, but will be able to find some not seen by the general public. The paint, chrome, glass and finishes will all appear as excellent. No excessive smoke will be seen on startup, no unusual noises will emanate from the engine. The vehicle will drive as a new vehicle of its era would. The one word description for #2 vehicles is "excellent."
- #3 Good$21,500 #3 vehicles could possess some, but not all of the issues of a #4 vehicle, but they will be balanced by other factors such as a fresh paint job or a new, correct interior where applicable. #3 vehicles drive and run well, but might have some incorrect parts. These vehicles are not used for daily transportation but are ready for a long tour without excuses, and the casual passerby will not find any visual flaws. "Good" is the one word description of a #3 vehicle.
- #4 Fair
The mileage may change by a very small amount as the car is still being driven on sunny Florida days.
The title is clear and clean. See picture.
This classic is sold "as is"
Vehicle is available for viewing in Englewood, Florida (between Sarasota and Ft Myers). Can be put on a lift for undercarriage inspection. Can be test driven. Again, this is a very very clean well maintained and well kept classic. You'll get many years of enjoyment from this beauty.
