Description

English speaking customer's are welcome, please don't hesitate to contact me for further informations. I am offering my beautiful 560SL for sale. There are many 560SLs on the market now but mine is one of the most beautiful. Pictures say more than 1, 000 words, see for yourself. Unfortunately I can't upload all the photos and videos here, but I have them all in my cloud. Serious prospective buyers are welcome to access my cloud.
Here are the most important key data: First registration 10. 1988, 2nd hand (+ inheritance), only 47. 315 KM (29. 388 Miles), 231PS, catalytic converter in beautiful diamond blue metallic with royal blue leather interior. Genuine leather, no MB-Tex. Rear seat with the two emergency seats that were apparently never used. Tinted windows, Hirschmann electric aerial, centre armrest, automatic air conditioning, electric windows, cruise control and, of course, automatic gearbox. I have converted the vehicle to EU standard, bumpers, lights and also the KM/ display. The mileage is verifiable and I personally guarantee it, everything is documented accordingly. I have also provided a Carfax and completely repainted the underbody! The convertible top has already been renewed and technically I have renewed everything that was due. In addition, the entire chassis was renewed; experts know how important the front lower wishbones are, for example, and I completely renewed them on both sides. I had to remove the rear axle to lay the new petrol lines, so one thing led to another.
I also replaced the fuel pump package incl. filter as well as the petrol lines and some of the brake lines. See photos of the underbody. There was rust film everywhere because the previous owner drove the car to his summer home in Florida. The underbody didn't harmonise with the rest of the vehicle and I actually only wanted to clean some of it but then decided to do it properly.
As I know what I have done, I offer a 1-year guarantee and the costs for the registration on German H licence plates are also included in the purchase price.
If you are not only looking for a beautiful 560SL, but also one that will increase in value, this is the right place for you. And the whole thing in this beautiful colour combination, diamond tree metallic with blue leather and blue soft top, a real eye-catcher. Again, the experts will know that not every 560SL is collector-worthy and will rise in price. Only the special examples, be it because of the colour combination, the low verifiable mileage or, among other things, the perfect condition and, if possible, the history, are very important. And this is one of the few candidates that is collector-worthy. So go on, buy me! Summary: -4 new Michelin tyres - new spark plugs (the previous owner had the ignition cables and distributor changed Bosch) - new engine oil and filter. Original Mercedes engine oil 229. 3 (5W/ 40) - New front and rear shock absorbers - New front lower wishbones - New tie rods, inner and outer - New steering damper (sits on the inner tie rod) - Brake system was recently renewed by the previous owner, I only renewed the brake fluid again - Both fuel pumps plus fuel filter renewed - Fuel lines and breather line renewed - Brake lines partially renewed - Brake hoses all renewed - New windscreen wipers - Gearbox oil was changed by the previous owner - New air filter - New lambda sensor It goes without saying that only OE suppliers such as ATE (brake lines) and ATE (brake hoses) were used. ATE (brake lines) or Bosch (petrol pumps) as well as shock absorbers Bilstein etc. were used. Who else among the sellers offers their vehicle with new Michelin tyres?
The yellow spots on the underbody (engine and gearbox units) are still the original wax from the factory!!! I have left it as far as possible, any questions? Just let me knowThis beautiful vehicle impresses with its great colour, the low mileage and the overall top condition of the vehicle. Especially the work on the underside stands out, in my opinion this is unique. There are not many offers that are similarly maintained and look like this.
