1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL
***MECHANIC'S SPECIAL or BUY AND PART IT OUT***
I am on the second owner of this vehicle. I have all paperwork of everything done to this car from the original owner dating back to 2006. I have had the car detailed inside and out, fresh oil change, all new spark plugs, and had the car inspected by TWO different very good mechanics that only deal with these types of older vehicles. I am 100% transparent whenever I sell a car private party! I will gladly answer any questions and provide additional photos and videos of whatever you ask! NO INTERNATIONAL BUYERS!
*THE GOOD*
- Car runs and drives BUT the ignition lock cylinder has been removed because the key was not turning the ignition (it was locking up). The only way to start the car now is with scissors (I know it sounds crazy). I have the original lock cylinder and 3 keys including a brand new one just ordered from Mercedes-Benz. I would not drive the car long distances. I would recommend having it delivered if you live outside of Columbus, OH.
- The A/C works and has been converted to R134a. It looks like the entire system was rebuilt in 2011 according to paperwork. The radiator also has been changed out.
- The interior is in VERY good condition for it's age (minus the tears in the front seats that you can see in the pictures). All power seats were working INCLUDING the rear power seat before the lock cylinder was removed. I do not know if the heated seats work because it's been so hot I haven't tried. No cracks in the dash at all.
- All new spark plugs (August 2022)
- Interior and Exterior Detail (August 2022)
- Oil and Filter Change (August 2022)
- Rear brakes have 80% left.

*THE BAD*
- SEE LAST PICTURE FOR THE COMPLETE LIST OF ISSUES AND RECOMMENDED SERVICES NEEDED!
- Car has pretty large dent in left front fender. There is rust on the front bumper. The right front passenger side door has a dent and tape covering a rust spot. The previous owner looks to have used touch-up paint on several areas to cover small scratches.
- Car will cut out when at very low speeds when you are doing a tight turn.
- Needs the ignition lock cylinder ($120 and still available) to be put in so you can use the keys to start car and not scissors.
- Cracks in both front turn signal covers.
- HighRough idle and gas smell out of exhaust.
- AGAIN SEE THE LAST PICTURE FOR THE COMPLETE LIST OF ISSUES AND RECOMMENDED SERVICES NEEDED!
