This 560SL is the top of the line model in one of the most desirable years. Mechanically sound and dependable vehicle. The engine runs great and is very powerful - this roadster can get up and go fast when asked. This vehicle has smooth handling and drives really well with the suspension and steering in fine working order.

My father is the 5th owner and has owned the vehicle the last 17 years. He only put 4000 miles on the vehicle and wants to sell it because he just doesn’t drive it as often as anticipated. I am selling it for him because he asked me to help with the online work and transaction.

There are receipts for over $10,000 of maintenance and repair work in the last 4,000 miles. All repairs were performed by professional mechanics in a well reputed shop.

Recent maintenance and repairs includes:

  • Crankshaft Main Bearing Seal and Rear Main Seal
  • Transmission seals and gaskets
  • Power Steering Pump
  • Driveshaft
  • Cross member bushings
  • Windshield washer pump
  • Exhaust manifold gaskets both banks
  • Drivebelts, etc
  • Tie rod Assembly, centerlink assembly, steering damper
  • Alternator
  • Disc brakes calipers rebuilt, new pads, etc
  • Blower motor
  • Timing chain and tensioner
  • Fan clutch
  • Fuel injectors, seals, holders
  • Dash instrument and electrical work (details in shop records)

The leather seats are worn. The carpets are in good shape but have some discoloration. The dashboard is in good shape. There are blemishes in the paint; most being on trunk lid, a spot near the gas tank filler door, and the top of the hard top. The seals on the body and hardtop are the original seals. There is some minor leaking at the top of the hardtop near the front and at the top of the back window. Due to slight leaking near the hardtop back window, there is surface rust on the floor of the rear cabin under the carpet and insulation. The SRS light in the dash is on. There are repair work records describing some diagnosis of that system. The Bulb Warning Light in the dash comes on when light switch is turned to the parking lamps or headlights on position. After reading through records there has been repair work for rear tail lights, possibly related to that, not sure. In repair receipts I read that the A/C compressor does not operate and may be low on freon. The vehicle is priced accordingly with these known imperfections.

California registered car and passes smog without problem. Clean title in hand. Includes replacement vin number as the original plates have been removed by a previous owner.

This is everything we know about the vehicle. It is a fun powerful car to drive and I hope it finds a new owner to appreciate it.
