Description of 1985 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Convertible and hardtop

This is one very well maintained classic Mercedes Benz Roadster. I still drive it regularly and have detailed receipts going back to 1994 and original maintenance booklet with entries going back to first oil change on 6/14/1985. Have all original manuals, books, warranty book, etc. Owned since 2001 and have receipts showing thousands in maintenance, repairs, and upgrades. The car is solid with no rust spots on body, it is built like a Panzer tank, and the engine is legendary Mercedes bullet proof quality runs wonderful with no smoke or engine noise.
Car is listed with NO RESERVE! These have been going up in value last year or so and I have decided its finally time for others to enjoy this beautiful Roadster. Bid well and GOOD LUCK!! No Reserve!!
** Overall VERY GOOD condition.** Mechanically EXCELLENT condition, runs and drives GREAT, newly serviced including new fuel injectors, new throttle linkage bushings, new engine management module, fuel mixture and idle reset, new brakes, new sway bar links. Engine rebuilt in 2001 with heads resurfaced, valve guides replaced, timing chain and guides replaced, etc - have detailed receipts for all this and more going back to 1994. Have original maintenance booklet with entries going back to 6/14/1985.** Interior GOOD condition. Leather looks nice front and back, no rips or tears, normal wear on seat bottoms have nice seat bottom covers, burled walnut dash and shift handle look good, original dash looks good just one small crack. Power windows and power door locks work as they should.** Exterior is VERY GOOD PLUS condition, zero rust zero dents in body, Paint sparkles nicely,Chrome is bright, Wheels were just refinished, no broken tines in grille, New front turn signal modules.
There are many nice photos and four videos taken today showing actual current condition. Please look carefully at the photos and videos and feel free to ask questions. I would prefer a local sale because seeing and driving the car is very fantastic and it is very impressive in person.

Seller has car advertised locally and seller reserves the right to cancel the auction if sold locally. If you want to make an offer before the end of the auction to make sure you get the car, I'm happy to accept a reasonable early offer and sell early thru eBay.
I've seen these SL cars increasing in value in the last year and have decided to sell now. Because values are increasing and this car hass great maintenance and records to prove it, it's likely to be a good investment or anyone at a very affordable price. Hagerty values this car at $12,800 in good condition and NADA Blue Book values are even higher. Some dealers are selling these cars from $15,000 to $25,000 and more but nice running examples like this one can still be well-bought for $7,000 to $10,000. This is your chance to own an excellent running and driving car in a very desirable color combination at a fraction of the cost.
Thanks for bidding and good luck to you - I'm confident you will enjoy the car as much as we have!
