Description of 1985 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 380SL

NO RESERVE! 1985 Mercedes 380 SL R107 for sale well below value, navy with grey leather interior. 153k miles (actual lower but I drive several times a week), all records, well maintained. 3rd owner, prior owner had since 1987. Purchased as a gift for my wife for $12,000 last year as the exterior and interior is very clean, small rust spot on hood which prior owner contained and painted over. Transmission started acting up, mechanic suggested a $4,000 transmission rebuild which I don’t have the budget for. That is the only known problem with the car aside from the common air not coming through center vents (heat and AC do work great), if that gets sorted it’s easily worth over $10,000 but I don’t have the $4,000 to put into it so i’m selling for a loss. Likely could be fixed DIY but not going to attempt. My loss, your gain. I still drive it daily but sometimes I need to turn the key a few times for the engine to turn and get into gear. Hope everyone appreciates the honesty, at this price it could sell for parts but it’s so beautiful and should be fixed so it can run another 150k miles. Will include snow tires, car cover, mint condition matching hardtop and hardtop stand. Would be great as a daily driver, college student, second car or even to keep at a second home.R107 Mercedes Benz Convertible 380SL
