Description of 1988 Mercedes-Benz 500-Series 560 SL

Here is your chance to get your hands on this Classic Collector Car at an affordable price. This 1988 560SL is arguably the most attractive color combination produced. She has the very desirable and rare diamond Blue Metallic with Cream interior. Mileage is 113,360
We have owned this car since approximately 2002 and only put 5k miles on her in the last 10 years. This car has been well maintained by German car specialists.
Because the car has been mostly in storage in recent years we had the German Car garage completely go though everything mechanical to ensure she is running perfectly.
We just spent $3600.00 before bringing her to market to ensure there will be no surprises for the new owners.
She drives straight and true, has lots of power and stops as she should.
The Good!!
Matching Hard top included
AC is Ice cold,
Very low miles on tires and wheels,
New brakes and Rotors "within past 500 miles"
Recent new upholstery "Within past 200 miles"Mercedes OEM Floor Mats like new.
Steering completely gone through, with fresh alignment
Interior is excellentGlass is excellent
All gauges and functions work including the time clock
No accidents, California Title in hand
The German car garage also just Dyno tuned and took her for smog. she has always passed easily.
There is not a dent or a ding anywhere on the vehicle
All the bright work/Chrome is in excellent conditionNew spare headrest covers are included, the current covers do not need replacing.Just flushed radiator and replaced all drive beltsLow miles on all new fuel injectorsFuel Distributor just completely rebuiltJust Replaced intake manifold gasketsJust Replaced Exhaust manifold gasket
Oil Change, new plugsOriginal OEM radio, works fine.German car garage went completely through the car, no expense spared. Shes ready to drive across country.
The Bad:
The paint is original and the clear coat has worn through in some areas, trunk lid, top of rear quarter panels and top of hard top. See pictures. We were going back and forth as to if we should repaint her but ultimately decided to sell her all original with nothing hidden at a far lower price.
Matching hard top is included.Driver and passenger window rubber on hard top is dried out, we have both sides OEM Rubber included ready to install.There is a very small rust spot on the passenger side door sill, it is the only spot of rust on this California car. It was there when we purchased the car 15 years ago and has not grown significantly in size.
The electric radio antenna is connected to radio but not connected to the power supply in trunk...easy access just needs connecting to operate up and down antenna switch. Also included is the original OEM Antenna that needs a new belt which is also included ready to install.There is a Sony 10 disk CD player in the trunk, it ejects and powers up. I do not believe it is currently connected to the radio.The wood trim in the lower console has cracks in the clear coat, just that one piece, all other wood is excellent.
That's about it. Essentially we have here a beautiful rare color combo all original 1988 560 SL. Mechanically perfect she just needs paint and she will be flawless.
