Description:

1985 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class

I have owned this vehicle since 2012 where I purchased it from a Florida dealer. Vehicle was a new car trade in from the original owners who lived on the East Coast and kept it garaged at their Florida retirement residence. Vehicle was purchased as a gift to the wife who traded it in upon her husband's passing.
Soft top replaced with original German canvas. I have had vehicle stored in humidity controlled environment since I purchased it and was only driven in summer to keep fluids fresh and serviced. All 4 tires are brand new and original spare is in trunk and has never been on the ground.
Paint on all surfaces is like new with no rust or oxidation. Transmission shifts perfectly in all gears and cruise control operates as it should. Power antennae and radio are operable. I have not had the A/C charged since we never drove it except with the top down, however the the compressor is functioning.
I was unable to obtain the service records from the original owners but have a set of owner's manuals. As a precaution, I had the fuel tank drained and fuel pump replaced last summer.
I've owned several SLs over the years, but this car is rarely driven, and my wife thinks it's time I free up some garage space. I'm at the age where I don't want my married daughters having to deal with selling it at my Estate Sale.
Message me with questions and I would also gladly accept phone calls to discuss.
