White colour, with a stunning red leather interior. Its cosmetic condition is very good and the upholstery is of high quality. The bodywork and the engine show a very good visual condition, both having undergone major restoration in 1992. More recently in 2021, it underwent €14, 000 of work by a Mercedes SL specialist workshop (pump, injection, wiring loom, tank, gauges, petrol pump, cooling system bleed, valve clearance, spark plugs, ignition, engine silent blocs, steering damper, oil change, filters, etc...). Consequently, the engine runs impeccably. Just note the exhaust line is corroded and to be replaced later (€1, 000), two minor dents with slight paint chips and a drying crack on the front bonnet, and tachometer cable.
It has a valuable history and a file of invoices for significant repairs carried out.
It has three expert reports, the first from 1992 after restoration, the second from 2019 and the latest from 2023 with an appraisal at €82, 000.
Vehicles in very good condition with a pristine history.
Price: €76, 900
