Description
- Engine & Drivetrain: Powered by the alloy 5. 0-litre M117 V8 engine mated to a 4-speed automatic gearbox. The engine idles smoothly, pulls strongly through the rev range, and the transmission shifts cleanly.
- Exterior & Paint: Finished in classic Astral Silver with slim European chrome bumpers, Bosch headlights, and factory front chin spoiler. Body lines and panel gaps are straight and uniform. Fitted with period 15-hole light alloy wheels ("Gullideckel").
- Interior: Finished in dark blue leather/ MB-Tex with dark blue carpeting and Zebrano wood veneers. Seat bolsters and headrests are firm and well-maintained. The dash pad is free from major cracks, and the boot/ trunk carpet remains clean with original spare wheel and tool wrap.
- Soft Top Condition: Blue canvas convertible hood in working order. The fabric shows minor cosmetic friction wear/ tear marks on the outer edges and above the header rail (as documented in the detailed close-up photos), though the mechanism latches correctly. [Mention if factory hardtop is included: "Includes color-matched factory hardtop with stand" / "Offered as soft-top only"].
- Distinctive and timeless color combination: Astral Silver over a sharp dark blue interior and matching dark blue soft top.
- The desirable European 5. 0L engine delivers effortless grand touring pace, far superior in torque and response to US-market equivalents.
- Honesty in presentation: Mechanically sound, solid bodywork, clean interior, and fully transparent regarding the cosmetic wear on the canvas roof.
- A reliable, appreciating modern classic that offers pure open-top 1980s motoring at its best.
