ITEMS TO NOTE ABOUT THIS CAR : As noted above, the soft top needs to be replaced, as does the air conditioning unit. I was extremely picky when examining this.
EXTERIOR - Front driver's side panel above and to the left of the wheel has a light and very thin scratch in the paint about 18" long. It has not removed the paint color and isn't easy to see except upon close inspection.
- There are teeny pin-head sized white dots of missing paint in various places of the exterior; not many and again, not terribly noticeable.
- The black rubber strips on exterior are somewhat faded in color, especially at door handles.
- There is some wear of color along door jambs.
- The rear driver's wheel cover/hub cap is missing a nut and Mercedes logo.
- Soft black top shows a lot of wear and issues both inside and out -- see photos. There are tears/slits in the fabric and visible wear; it needs to be replaced. The frame for the top is fine.
- There is a thin black line in the interior side of the hard top; see photos.
INTERIOR - There is a yellow light illuminated on the dash board. The owner spoke with Mercedes; this light indicates that the brake light on the rear trunk hood, center, is out. This is a special order and not from normal stock due to the age -- new owner will need to replace it.
- All interior leather and mats show signs of wear; floor mats need to be replaced (see photos)
- Leather shows wear spots especially on bolsters and seat back. Marks include scuffs and fading and some wrinkling marks but not dried out cracking; driver's seat shows the most wear.
- Doors show some fading of the color in the leather.
- Bench behind front seats show some discoloration.
- The silver plates to cover one of the seat hardware sets came off, but is included (shown in seat pocket).
- Wood in center console shows a wrinkling of some sort; see photo.
- There is wear in the rubber channels/seals of the windows; see photos.
- The driver's window has a slight hitching motion when closing, but works fine and closes fully and completely.
